“Clarissa exceeded every expectation we had about the level of care our dogs would receive. This is the first time we had a sitter for them since moving to Charlotte over a year ago. All of our interaction with Clarissa was very positive, from the first appointment to meet "our girls" to a trial run at her suggestion, to the actual care dates. We were confident that she would take their care very seriously. She won over our very shy older dog who in record time, evidenced by lots of photos. This was one of our most pressing concerns and it happened quite quickly. Clarissa is making a career of training dogs so her attention to their behavior with her and with each other was impressive: our newest rescue is a little on the wild side and Clarissa's observations about her were spot on. She told us that she could work on some of the dog's more, shall we say, rambunctious behaviors. We could tell after coming home that the dog was listening more readily to commands. We came home to a clean house, with the bed sheets in the laundry room, the dishes in the dishwasher, an empty kitchen sink and clean counters. In short, we were beyond pleased with the care Clarissa provided and have already discussed future plans with her. Thank you Clarissa, and thank you Rover.”
“Cece was absolutely wonderful with our dog! She was caring, reliable, and treated her like her own. We felt completely comfortable knowing she was in such good hands. Communication was great, and we would absolutely recommend Cece to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter!”
“Jeadyce was awesome. She treated Henry like he was her own pup, kept me in the loop with pictures, videos and updates of their day and overall is super easy to communicate with and willing to accommodate. I’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter for their dog”
“Ashlie was amazing! She stayed with our dog and cat for 4 days 3 nights while we were away and they had the best time. Highly recommend her for any of your pet care needs!”
“Erica was absolutely amazing and I would recommend her to anyone! She was so sweet and took great care of both of our dogs while my husband and I were out of town. She sent multiple updates with pictures of them throughout the day. She stayed at our house and the place was spotless when we returned. My dogs were very comfortable around her and got lots of cuddles while we were gone. I will definitely reach back out to Erica again when needed!”
About: I’ve always had a huge love for animals, especially dogs! I previously worked professionally as a dog handler and walker at Biscuits & Bath in New York City, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs with different personalities, sizes, energy levels, and individual needs. Through this experience, I learned how important patience, attentiveness, and consistency are when caring for someone’s pet. I’m comfortable managing multiple dogs, keeping them engaged and active, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I understand that pets are family, and I take the responsibility of caring for them seriously. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just having someone around to keep them company, I’ll make sure they receive the attention and affection they deserve. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring, experienced hands! I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for pets! I’m happy to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and other pet care needs throughout the week. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care is something I look forward to incorporating into my daily routine. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I’ll always do my best to work around their usual feeding, walking, and playtime schedules. I’m also happy to discuss specific scheduling needs to find an arrangement that works best for you and your pet! Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities! My professional experience working with dogs has taught me how important it is to be attentive, patient, and aware of each animal’s behavior and individual needs. When caring for pets in their own homes, I make sure to respect their environment and maintain the routines they’re most comfortable with. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and any special care requirements. I’m especially mindful of keeping doors and gates secure, using appropriate leashes and equipment, and ensuring pets are always supervised when necessary. I also understand that some animals may be nervous around new people, so I take a gentle approach and allow them to become comfortable at their own pace. I believe communication is an important part of building trust, and I’m always happy to send pictures and regular updates throughout each visit. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel safe, comfortable, and completely cared for!
“Sophia was absolutely wonderful!!! She stayed overnight with our dogs and took such great care of them while we were away. She was kind, reliable, and such a great communicator from start to finish!!! We loved getting all of the photos and updates, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pups were happy and well cared for. She took them out several times a day for walks, gave them lots of attention, and made sure they were comfortable and loved!!! We came home to happy, relaxed dogs, and we are so grateful for the care Sophia gave them. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her!!!”
“Carly is amazing with our anxious and oddball of a rescue! I always worry how he will do if we are away, but Carly has always been able to make him comfortable and happy enough to stay calm and eat his meals. He loves the exercise he gets so excited when he knows Carly will be visiting.”
“I can't say enough good things about Shalisha. From the moment we met, I knew my pets were in great hands. She went above and beyond to ensure my furry family members were well cared for, loved, and happy while I was away. She sent regular updates, including pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My pets were relaxed and content when I returned, a true testament to the excellent care they received. If you're looking for someone who is reliable, trustworthy, and truly loves animals, I highly recommend Shalisha. I will definitely be booking her again in the future!”
About: I have grown up around dogs and cats my entire life and have experience with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities. My experience includes large breeds such as Mastiffs and Pit Bulls, French Bulldogs, Dachshunds, domestic cats, Sphynx cats, and feral cats. I have also worked in a doggy daycare under the supervision of a veterinarian, which gave me additional experience in a professional animal-care setting. I understand the importance of patience, safety, following care instructions, and recognizing that every animal has different needs and behaviors. I am passionate about providing loving, attentive care and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to give pet owners peace of mind while they are away. i am currently working part time so i will have plenty of time to play with your fur baby’s! i’m available for over nights as well! When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I follow each pet’s routine, feeding, providing fresh water, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I give them plenty of attention, patience, and affection while making sure they get the exercise and care they need.

“I feel I have discovered a hidden gem! Nia is wonderful. We did a meet and greet before Jaxon’s stay and my dog felt at home the moment he walked in the door. Nia and her husband are kind and friendly. I was hesitant at first not knowing how Jaxon would do with her dog, but Kevin must have been a generous host too - even let Jaxon borrow his bed 😉. Communication was great and I received many pics of Jaxon enjoying himself. Will definitely use again!”
“Eric did a great job with our Bear! (Don’t be worried he is actually a dog, but his name is Bear.) Eric is trained on the same color that we use so it made the transition over to his care from ours. Very smooth. Eric is conscientious and on time! Definitely will book again.”
“Kristen was fantastic. She took care of our home and our 3 dogs (and 1 rabbit) for us while we were out of town. She sent regular pictures, took the pups for walks, and even emptied the trashcans before she left. She was communicative, responsible, and kind. I would happily have her back!”

It is a little unsettling to turn your house and your beloved pet over to someone you just met, but I immediately felt so comfortable with Kristian as did our Lolita. Kristian took excellent care of both our home and Lolita, communicated throughout her visit and of course sent many pictures. I cannot recommend highly enough. I certainly will ask her to take care of Lolita whenever we have the need.
Alisa and Alex were truly amazing. Best sitters we have had for our pups by far. Not only did they provide excellent care for our high needs Boxer and English Bulldog through walks, providing their medications, play time, and snuggles, they kept us updated at least twice a day with check ins and adorable pictures. We have a lot of anxiety when leaving our fur babies, but Alisa and Alex took so much of that anxiety away. We hope to continue to use them any time we have to travel without our pups! They also kept the house tidy and well cared for (including washing their towels and sheets) which we so appreciated. Without a doubt, hire them for your dog and house sitting needs.
Sophia was absolutely incredible! From the moment we left, we knew Jenny and Sparkie were in the best hands. She took such wonderful care of both our dogs and our home, providing regular updates, pictures, and plenty of walks, playtime, and love. It gave us complete peace of mind knowing they were so well cared for, allowing us to truly enjoy our time away without worry. When we returned home, the house was spotless, and Jenny and Sparkie were happy, relaxed, and clearly adored. It's obvious that Sophia genuinely loves animals and treats them as if they were her own. We couldn't recommend Sophia more highly and will absolutely be asking her to stay with Jenny and Sparkie again. Thank you, Sophia, for taking such amazing care of our family, you exceeded every expectation!

We had a wonderful experience with Ariana! She took great care of both our dogs and made sure she did everything she could to make them happy and comfortable while we were away. Ariana had great communication throughout our trip! We also came home to a clean, well-kept house which gave us peace of mind. We absolutely would recommend her and will definitely use her again in the future!
Luliia was so sweet with my girls! I came home to two happy pups and a clean, tidy house just like I left it. She followed all my instructions and sent me daily updates and cute pics of the girls, which I loved. I really appreciated her help—definitely recommend her!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Weddington walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Weddington maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Weddington choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter 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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
