Pet Sitting Waxhaw

“Jen and her daughter took wonderful care of our kitties! We were so grateful to have such loving carers for them while we were away. We look forward to booking Jen again for our next trip!”

“Justin was punctual with his visits to my pup and did exactly what I asked him to do. He gave her lots of pets and belly rubs, which she loves.”

About: Since I was 12 years old I have been dog sitting at my home, dog walking, doing visits and assisting with South Charlotte Dog Rescue doing short term fosters. I have worked with dogs of all ages and have good experience with different needs and requirements. I am currently working part time and doing some fun projects. But I still have plenty of time for your pup. I am flexible on times and days just please communicate with me! I will provide safe, reliable dog walks and home visits while making sure your dog is happy and healthy. I will ensure pets have food, water, exercise, and attention, while keeping their environment calm and secure. I treat every pet and home with respect, patience, and care.

“This is the second time that Gina has cared for our cat while we are away. Gina is wonderful...she truly loves cats, is mature and an excellent communicator and photographer (she takes better pictures of G. than I think I ever have!) We will always book Gina as our first choice as she is a treasure!”

About: I previously cat/dog and house sat while living in NYC and Los Angeles, and now North/South Carolina. I walked the dogs several times daily, prepared special meals as directed and kept them company. With cats, I made sure their litter boxes were clean and they had their meals and medications. Up until recently, I had threesenior dogs, a chi-weenie and a dachshund. The dachshund had back trouble so I took her to the acupuncturist and chiropractor, she also had chronic UTI so she was on medications. One of my dogs had seizures, so I had special diets and medications for her. I would love to meet you & your pet! I am currently working outside the house - so weekday care might be difficult if you need someone at your home during the day. I can be available evenings and weekends, and depending on the specific case, I could make arrangements during the day. I can walk your pet around your neighborhood. I like to make sure that they have some reflective tapes/leash in case we're out at night.

“Maggie took care of our labs in our home while we were gone for the weekend. She did a great job!”

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.

“Her credentials are what drew me to her and from day one (the meet and greet) I knew she’d be the one. Loki my male cat doesn’t warm up to anyone for at least a week of them coming around and he went right to her. He could sense her kind soul. I have never hired a pet sitter before this but I will definitely hire Taryn again. She went above and beyond. I had to have major surgery and was in the hospital for 7 days and it was comforting to know that my cats Stella and Loki were in terrific loving hands. Love Love Love her!!!”

“Amazing, will definitely be reaching out again and recommending to my friends. Had him take care of our cat and dog for a week and always came on time and was great to the pets.”

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: Imagine Mary Poppins and Cesar Milan (dog whisperer) had a love child...that's me! I've been loving and caring for animals from birth to the rainbow bridge for over 35 years. My relationship with animals is intuitive, organic, and informed. As a pet sitter, what sets me apart from others is my PASSION in providing care for animals with special needs. I have extensive training and experience in caring for puppies, seniors, and pets with medical conditions. I prioritize the individual needs of each pet in my care, providing tailored attention and ensuring their comfort and well-being at all times. With me, you can rest assured that your beloved furry friend will receive the highest level of care and attention they deserve. I know CPR, am comfortable giving shots, know how to administer rectal medication and can save your pet’s life if necessary. I'm retired. My time is devoted to loving on dogs. I don't allow more than 2 dog clients at a time in my home. The house is big enough to separate dogs, but typically there is only 1 dog at a time so that they get one on one full time attention. I will play and care for them as if they are my own flesh and blood. I never leave for more than 2 hours at a time to run to the doctor, grocery store, Walmart etc. I have a very large fenced in yard and a senior dog to keep your pet company. It is sunny on one side, which is a great place to play and on the other side it is shady. My home sits on approxiately 2 acres. They are more than welcome to lay on the furniture and especially my bed - that is if you allow that in your own home. My home is crate & kennel-free. So your doggie will roam free in the house and yard. Now, you can bring your own crate if your pup is used to sleeping in it or needs to be crated on the rare occasion I leave the house.

“Jessica did an amazing job taking care of our 2 year old and new-to-us 3 year old doggos. We had never used a service like this before, but Jessica put us at ease by meeting with us before our trip. She sent us photos and check ups each time she visited. Will definitely be using her again!”

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.

“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.”

“Alexa is awesome! We highly recommend her.”

“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.”

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.

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.

“Thanks for taking great care of Midge!”

“Marina did a great job with twice daily drop-ins for 3 cats for 4 days. The cats where all comfortable with her and all went smoothly. She also seems to be a genuinely nice person. She is going to come by for drop-ins for my cats on my next trip as well!”
