About: I have taken care of dogs since I was in high school. I have looked after both young and older dogs caring after all of them as if they were my own. A little more than a year ago I got my first puppy, so I also have learned a lot about caring after puppies and providing plenty of walks and entertainment, to ensure they are cared after and happy. Im currently working part time, therefore I have availability most days of the weeks for drop in visits or for taking plenty of dog walks. I live close to the park , I take my own dog on various walks daily to ensure she is active and has plenty of time to go potty. I do the same activities for every and any dog that I am looking after. I take them long walks (according to their ability) and I always look out for them to ensure their safety!
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is I have taken care of cats, kittens, dogs of all sizes, and a bunny, this has lead me to learn different requirements and routines for different pets. I’ve always had a deep love for animals and would be happy to send you regular updates and pictures. I also wouldn’t mind watering plants or doing any extra cleaning up after your pet. I currently go to school on the weekdays from eight to eleven twenty in the morning and on the weekends I am usually free mostly all day. I have two cats at home, I clean their litter box daily and brush them often in the warmer season to keep them from shedding everywhere. They get fed breakfast, dry food, and dinner, wet food. And they have plenty of toys and two cat trees to play with and sleep on.

About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs my whole life. I grew up with dogs and currently have a pit bull/boxer mix, so I’m very comfortable with strong, energetic, affectionate dogs as well as dogs who need patience and routine. I’m happy to help with walks, drop-ins, feeding, fresh water, playtime, potty breaks, and giving your dog attention while you’re away. I know how important it is to feel like your pet is safe and cared for, and I’ll treat your dog like I’d want someone to treat mine. I’m dependable, gentle, and attentive, and I’m comfortable following specific instructions for feeding, medications, routines, or special needs. I have a flexible schedule right now and can make time for pet care during the week and on weekends. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and giving pets some company while their owners are away. I’m happy to follow each pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and cared for. Safety and trust are really important to me. I’ll always follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, medications, routines, and any special needs. I pay attention to body language, keep dogs secure on walks, and make sure doors, gates, leashes, and food instructions are handled carefully. I’ll treat every pet with patience, kindness, and respect.
About: Hi, I'm King Dre! Im new to the LA area but I’ve been taking care of pets my whole life!!! I was born and raised in Orlando, Florida, played baseball for 16 years both Varsity Highschool as well as Travel ball and in 2019 moved up here to North Carolina for my dads retirement and to be close to his side of the family. I recently worked at PetSmart for about a year and took care of many exotic pets on the daily! Whatever your needs are, pets are a breeze for me and you are more than welcome to message me your requests and we will work something out. Thank you and may God guide your spirit in Jesus name, amen!!! I always prioritize pets necessities and desires and have a job that allows me to work remotely while I take care of your pets at the same time!!! I also own a cat myself who I love and adore with all my soul lol. I would take your pet for a walk daily to ensure their built up energy is being used as well as give them special play time! However many times your animal takes to use the bathroom I will ensure happens and accommodate any preferences they have and are needed. I love to lay and cuddle with animals so if that’s something your pet loves, I’m all for it!
“Took such great care of our pup over a weekend. She was very happy and made a new friend! Great communicator, kept me updated throughout, lots of pics. Thank you Justin!”

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.
“Evgeniia did a great job walking our 2 German shepherds in our neighborhood. They pull some abs she said they were no problem! They definitely liked her! She communicated well with timing of the walks. She’s also very kind!”

“I highly recommend Brittnay! She is very dependable, reliable, and communicates exceptionally well. I always have peace of mind knowing my fur babies are in such caring hands. She sends plenty of photos and updates during each visit, which I truly appreciate. It's clear she genuinely cares about my dogs and goes above and beyond to make sure they are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I couldn't ask for a better person to look after my pups!”

About: What sets me apart is the deep, lifelong connection I’ve had with dogs. I’ve personally raised three pups from just six weeks old all the way through their senior years. Each one grew into a loving, obedient, and well-mannered companion, and I’ve been through every stage of life with them—from puppy energy to senior snuggles. That experience has given me a strong understanding of how to care for dogs at any age, whether it’s gentle patience with a new pup or extra comfort and support for older dogs. This is a truly dog-friendly home where your pet will feel like family. I have three kind and respectful kids who absolutely adore dogs and are always excited to welcome new furry friends into our home. Whether your pup loves to play, nap, or just follow someone around all day, there’s a warm spot (and probably a willing lap) waiting for them here. I don’t just watch dogs—I care for them as if they were my own. 🐾 Hi! I’m a school social worker with the Charlotte-Mecklenburg School District, and caring for others—whether it’s students or furry friends—has always been second nature to me. I’ve had a dog in my life since I was a teenager, and I truly believe dogs are one of the most perfect, loving animals on this earth. 💛 Over the years, I’ve trained dogs to go potty outside, sit, stay, lay down, heel on walks, and even speak when it’s treat time (a favorite trick in our house!). I’ve also raised multiple dogs from puppyhood through their senior years, so I’m comfortable with dogs at all life stages and energy levels. This is a dog-loving home, through and through. I have three kids who are gentle, kind, and absolutely adore dogs. There’s always a cozy corner, a warm cuddle, and plenty of love waiting for your pup here. Whether they want to play, nap, go on walks, or just soak up some attention, your dog will be treated like one of the family I do not have a fence in yard but it is partially fenced in. I do have a dog lead and I will always be outside
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have cared for three family dogs — a Golden Retriever, a Goldendoodle, and an Australian Labradoodle. From energetic puppies to a senior dog who lived to be 16, I’ve experienced every stage of a dog’s life and genuinely love being around animals. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, feeding routines, giving lots of attention, and adapting to each dog’s personality and needs. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I’ll treat your dog like family while you’re away. I recently relocated back home after living abroad, so my schedule is very open right now, which allows me to be highly available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I know how important it is to trust the person watching your pet, so I always try to keep things calm, consistent, and as close to their normal routine as possible. Whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just giving them extra attention and cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel happy and comfortable. I really love animals and will treat your pets like they’re my own.

About: I have been taking care of dogs for years and have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. What sets me apart from other sitters is my ability to adapt to each dog’s unique needs, for example, helping energetic dogs burn off energy through long walks/playing in the backyard and attentive care for senior dogs who might need a little more assistance! I’m comfortable administering oral medications, working with puppies on basic manners, and walking dogs that pull on leash. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while in my care! As a college student home for the summer, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to spend with your pets! Since I am currently not working another job, I am available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and feeding. I can accommodate most schedules, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and last-minute bookings whenever possible. My goal is to provide reliable care and make sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve while you’re away! Your pet’s safety and comfort are very important to me. I do have a secure, fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play and exercise. I also have dogs of my own of different ages, sizes, and energy levels, which has given me a lot of experience caring for many different personalities and needs. I carefully introduce dogs when appropriate, monitor all interactions, and can separate pets if needed to make sure everyone is comfortable and safe. I follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special requests to make sure your pet feels happy and safe while in my care!
“As always, did a great job with the last minute dog walking request. Doggies love her and she is totally trustworthy. She gave them ice cold water after the walk to cool them down from the walk. Definitely knows how to take care of the fur babies and is an animal lover which shows in her actions. I highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve had a dog(s) since I was in a crib, they’re my life. I’ve volunteered at vets offices off and on for 3 years and I grew up working horses so I know quite a bit about first aid care! I’m the type of person who notices a dog before I notice a person. I think how people treat animals is a very important personality trait. I’ve always had a huge passion for animals since birth, and pet sitting helps me get my “puppy obsession” out without owning 50 dogs and cats. I’d love to help you feel like your babies are safe and cared for while you’re away! I have experience with animals of all sizes, and energy levels, as well as with behavioral or health issues. I am currently renovating my family home, so I set my own schedule. I am extremely flexible and willing to accommodate any scheduling needs to ensure the best care! I treat others homes as well or better than my own, and I like animals more than most people so I will give your fur babes genuine love and affection.
About: I was raised with dogs and have been affectionately referred to as “the dog whisperer” all my life. I have lots of experience with rescue animals because my family helps transport, foster, and support them. I have delivered newborn puppies, given flea treatments, and handled cats & dogs of all temperaments, abilities, shapes, and sizes. My calm confidence is a great comfort to the anxious hearts in my care. I look forward to meeting your family and learning all their lovable quirks! I live at home with my parents so while it is difficult for me to board animals at my house with my dogs, my parents are home and can care for our animals when I am gone. I petsit full time so most days it is just me and the animal(s) I am caring for. Depending on their regular schedule, I try to keep their daily routine intact. My house has a fenced in yard with a dog door to a screened in porch that my dogs love. If I am watching a social dog, I will check with the owners and invite them over to play. My house has seen many rescue transports and one of my dogs is a foster fail so my house is already chaos proofed. I usually prefer to keep up the owners daily routine by staying in their house and feeding their animals at the same time and in their usual spots. It is a comfort to not change everything about their environment while they are anxious. When I take them on a walks, I usually let the dog show me the way as they know the regular route by heart. If they are older and nap 10x a day or if they are energetic and play fetch 3x a day then that is what we do, it really depends on each family’s individual needs.
“Grace and Amara are amazing‼️ I’m visiting for the summer and have been traveling . They were a godsend for my golden Hudson., he loved his walks, even though it was quite hot and even enjoyed playing ball. Thank you. I could travel with ease, knowing that Hudson was in such good hands. I would highly recommend grace and Amara.‼️‼️🐾🐾💥”

About: I’m a pet lover. I have been an owner of cats, small & bigs dogs, birds & fish. It’s natural for me to take care of them and to get what they need. I remember that I adopted a mixed Husky who was born with some issues at his back legs. But for me I knew he worth it, to be loved as any other dogs. I’m experienced to handle puppies, to take care different ages & breeds of dogs. Keeping pets active, fed and cared is the most important for me I will take care your dogs like they was mine.

About: As a teen I loved to help walk neighborhood dogs before working in childcare 9+ years. I say pet care isn’t far from caring for babies. I am just whom you are looking for to care for your fur family members’ I’m Nora and I’m job hunting for remote work at the moment, so lots of time for pet care and walks.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Waxhaw. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Waxhaw. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
