Thank you Justin for watching my puppy for an entire week. Justin also came to visit Jared the day before we left so he could see and smell him. Jared immediately liked Justin. Justin also volunteered to watched Jared an additional day for me. I will definitely be using Justin in the future. I really appreciate him for helping me.

Taryn was amazing!! She was available to check in on our kitties last minute and at a reasonable price! She was great with our cats & they seemed comfortable with her too!(even our shy one & our naughty one lol) We absolutely loved and adored all the pictures she sent us of our kitties during check ins! We felt comfortable having her watch them and we would definitely book Taryn’s services again!!

About: I have been taking care of my own pets for about 8 years, and I have also helped my family with their pet care responsibilities. I am currently looking for work, so I have morning and afternoon availability to offer pet care and walking services, always with attention, patience, and love. Near where I live, there's a fenced dog park, and at home, I have a balcony where pets can relax, play and enjoy the outdoors.

It seems fitting on our kitty's 4th birthday, to again state that Gina is the very best kind of pet care giver. She loves animals, has excellent skills with them and their owners, is totally reliable and is also a spectacular informal pet photographer. We all love Gina at our house!

India gives continue care even after leaving. I have come home to relaxing sounds/music left on the TV. I would have never thought of that, but feel like it keeps our over anxious dog relaxed while we are gone. Now if I could only remember to do that. 😬

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13, whether it was neighbors or family, I always put forth the effort to make your pets feel loved and supported! I’m currently a student so I’ll have plenty of time to drop by and play with your pets, feed them, and walk them, if desired. I have two dogs myself, one thing I love to do is curl up on the couch with a good book with my pups! (I think they just like to lay on my legs.)

About: We have over 10 years of experience in pet sitting. Our love for animals drives us to give them the attention and care they deserve. We understand each pet's unique needs, whether it's administering medication, comforting anxious pets, or simply playing with them. Our commitment to their well-being and happiness ensures they feel safe, loved, and at home while their owners are away. We understand that leaving your beloved pup alone while you're away for vacation or tied up with work can be a source of stress and worry. That's where we come in! We're a dedicated duo that works from home and is passionate about providing a loving and caring environment for dogs of all ages. We offer constant companionship, supervision, and daily walks for furry friends in our care. Our priority is to provide exciting adventures that keep tails wagging and hearts full, including playtime, cuddles, and exploring new trails. We absolutely adore our playful pup, Winter, and we make sure to give her plenty of love and attention every day. That includes taking her for 2-3 walks so she can stretch her legs and providing her with a cozy bed (or four!) for all her well-deserved naps.

About: Hi! I'm Christina. I'm married and have a dog, two cats, and an African Grey Parrot. I work remotely, I love to travel, and I love animals, so I'm happy to find a way to combine all three! I work remotely for a bank as a Technical Writer. When I'm not doing that, I love to read and travel. A few years ago, I did a solo cruise to Alaska, and it was probably one of the best trips of my life. Whale watching was something on my bucket list, and I was really excited that the stars aligned for the opportunity to do that on my birthday. My parents have lived on a farm for about 16 years now, so I have a lot of experience with farm life and caring for chickens, guineas, goats, fish, and livestock guardian dogs. Along with my experience owning dogs, cats, and parrots. If you think we would be a good fit, please feel free to reach out, and I'm happy to chat more! I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible which allows me the ability to work around your needs for pet sitting/walking. I'm happy to talk further about specific needs. I would follow instructions of the pet owner - supervised backyard play, on-leash walks, etc. I always provide updates at each check-in and include photos.

About: I’ve cared for fish, birds, cats, and dogs in my own home since I was 10 years old — 24 years of reading animal behavior and knowing what every kind of pet needs at every stage of life. Today I’m a federally-credentialed animal handler (USFWS Import License) maintaining a complex multi-species planted aquarium, and by day I own a licensed home services company in Union County. Married with a young son. Your pet gets a calm, attentive walker who never rushes a visit. I live two minutes from downtown Waxhaw and treat every booking like a neighbor helping a neighbor. My evenings open up at 8pm once my family is settled in, which means I’m available for that last walk before bed, the dinner-time check-in, or the after-work visit your dog can’t get from a daytime sitter. Standard availability: Sunday through Saturday, 8–11pm. Weekend afternoons sometimes open — message me. New clients: 4 hours’ advance notice gets you on my calendar, same-day if I’m free. Drop-in visits happen in your home, so my focus is keeping things exactly as you left them. I re-secure every door and gate, follow your written instructions to the letter, send photo updates during each visit, and keep walks on-leash unless you tell me otherwise. As a licensed business owner who runs crews on customer properties every day, treating someone else’s space with care is second nature. Background-checked through Rover, and happy to do a free meet-and-greet before your first booking.

Jeremy took great care of our dogs while we were away for a few days. We knew they were in good hands as soon as we all met during the first interview. Jeremy kept my wife and I well informed during our time away and kept us updated on how our dogs were doing. We were extremely satisfied and would absolutely recommend Jeremy for any pet sitting needs you might have.

About: I have always enjoyed working with all kinds of animals. The joy, comfort, and love that comes from an animal is truly unbeatable. I am reliable, nurturing, and detail-oriented.i have worked with all ages of animals including puppies and seniors! I have experience in giving oral medications as well! I am a recent college graduate and just left a job. I am currently available all day everyday and would love to fill that time watching your pets! Since this is now my only job, I can spend as much time as needed with your pet! I am very physically active and enjoy going on walks and playing with animals. I communicate with the parents of the pet I am watching to ensure I am giving the best possible care to their fur baby. Most of the families I sit for will write/type directions if there is medications or specific requests. I am unable to board pets in my home, but I will love on your animals from the comfort of their own home.

Katherine continues to provide great care for my elderly sheltie. Sophie now knows her and greets her like family, and I know that shes in great care as well as my home during her visits. I'm confident when Katherine is in my home with Sophie all is being done to provide a great environment for her, and I know she is diligent in taking care of my home.

First time using Rover and Brittany. She did an initial meet and greet and came by one more time before services started since I was a new customer. Brittany communicated daily and sent pictures. One of my cats needed meds and she did all as requested. Would use her again and do recommend.

About: I’m a 19 year old student at UNC Charlotte and have grown up with dogs my entire life, so caring for animals comes very naturally to me. I’ve also dog and cat sat many times for friends, family, and others, including feeding, walking, playing, and overnight care. I’m comfortable with pets of different sizes and personalities, and I always make sure to follow routines closely so pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I have classes in the mornings until around 12, which leaves me free for the rest of the day and evenings. I’m available for check-ins, feedings, walks, and overnight stays with pets throughout the afternoon and night. I’m also flexible with my schedule and can adjust to meet a pet’s specific routine, whether that means multiple visits a day or staying longer to make sure they’re comfortable and cared for. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I always follow their specific instructions closely to keep their pet’s routine as consistent as possible. I make sure pets are fed on time, have fresh water, get plenty of attention, and any other care they need like walks, playtime, or litter box cleaning. I’m respectful of my clients’ homes and keep everything clean and organized. I also like to provide updates and photos so owners feel comfortable knowing their pet is happy and well cared for while they’re away.
