“Emily is amazing. She came in a time where I was feeling hopeless and she makes me feel so supported ❤️ She’s always so patient with my crazy babies! And she’s so sweet.”


“Couldn’t recommend Susanna enough! I loved getting updates and pictures of my boy and I know he had a great time on his walks. Susanna is kind, trustworthy and truly cares about the animals!”


About: I have owned fur babies a majority of my life and love caring for them. For the 3 years, I volunteered as an in home foster for a local dog rescue and have experience with anything from the shy/timid personalities to the energetic playful personalities that these babies have. I have my own dogs who welcome other 4 legged visitors and enjoy running around the house and yard playing....but they also enjoy cuddling and nap time. I have a fenced area in my front yard where they can enjoy fresh air and lay in the sunshine. Your pets will be loved on and pampered while here. I have experience in giving medications as I have had to medicated some of the fosters that’s i have had. I do have crates available for those who need it. I work from home so they would not be left alone for long periods and would be taken outside frequently. I currently work from home so the fur babies would not be left for long periods. My daughter lives with me and helps care for the dogs. I have 2 small fenced areas in my yard but I do not leave any dog outside alone. I also have fences and crates available for inside for nights and when I have to run errands.

About: My dad was a police officer when I was younger, and he'd always bring home every stray dog that he got a call about or found. So I've been around dogs my whole life. I've helped take care of them & I absolutely love dogs! My family has 5 right now, and there hasn't been a time we haven't had one. There's not a breed I'm afraid of, and I'm very patient & understanding with any dog I meet. I'll follow any rules or restrictions you have & your dog will most certainly be taken care of & loved. One of my dogs is super protective over me so he can be unpredictable sometimes when other dogs are in his house and/or around me. He usually relaxes pretty quickly after taking some time to get used to them. We also have 4 cats at our house. I primarily help my mom take care of my brother with disabilities so he comes first, but that does mean my schedule is usually open and pretty flexible I will follow whatever rules and routines you have in place, and will take the best care of your fur baby(ies). They will be loved on and treated like my own!

“Grateful to Stef for walking River for her whole scheduled walk and even a few minutes extra- as an owner of a very active girl, this is something I truly appreciate. And as an added bonus, River loved Stef! :)”


About: My name is Allanna, and I've been dogsitting for about two years now! I recently moved back to Shelby, I actually grew up in the area, so I'm very comfortable and familiar with it! I love all pets - dogs, cats, and even the not so furry ones like reptiles (yes, I'll even love your pet spider if you have one ;]) I also LOVE cleaning, so I'm great for house-sitting as well! I'm a part time barista so I have a lot of free time! I've owned my fair share of dogs and cats (currently I have none, sadly) so no worries about love or experience! I love hiking, so I love long walks! Also as a bonus, I'll bake healthy, homemade treats for your pets, or even sweets for you!

About: Hi my name is Jasmine. My experience with animals is personal and professional. I have helped pet sitting and walking dogs for over 5 year of experience now. I have 2 dogs of my own who go with me wherever I go except when working lol. I've been having dogs and cats my entire life & I have much experience ranging from puppy - senior needs. Love making new pet buddies, and want to ensure they are as happy as can be. Pets are great companions and I look forward to meeting many new buddies! I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays after 12pm I have a fenced back yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I always make sure we go on walks, clean up after them, play with them. I always make sure they are fed when they are suppose to and have water.

About: Hi! I’m Andrea — a passionate dog sitter with 5 years of hands-on experience and four happy pups of my own. What sets me apart? I don’t just watch dogs — I understand them. I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs my whole life, and caring for them comes naturally. Whether your dog needs extra playtime, patience, or just some loving company while you're away, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I'm looking to stay active this summer doing what I love most — giving dogs the care and attention they truly deserve. Since I’m home for the summer with completely open availability, pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. Whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or evening check-ins, I’m flexible and fully committed to giving your dog the attention and care they need—any time of day. Your pup’s routine becomes my priority! I can care for pets in my own home, where I have a secure fenced yard and a doggie door that allows for easy, safe outdoor access throughout the day. Before we had a doggie door, our dogs were let out every 1–2 hours or whenever they waited by the door—so I’m always attentive to their needs. Dogs in my care are fed morning and night, and I stick closely to their usual routines to help them feel comfortable and cared for. I’m also happy to care for dogs in their own homes, where I can provide regular visits, feeding, walks, and plenty of attention while keeping them in a familiar environment.

About: I have had experience with animals since I was a young child, we have always had animals in our home. In the past 3 years I have had an extensive amount of professional experience dog/house sitting and love what I do. I have experience with dogs and cats ranging from puppies/kittens to seniors. I am currently a full time online student who also works part time, but I have that extra time to spend with your fur babies! I prefer for there to be a fence at the home for safety reasons but if not I will make sure that your pets receive periodic walks if needed throughout the day and lots of cuddle time!

About: I have been taking care of different types of dogs breeds since I was 5 years old. I have experience in following bathroom schedules and food schedules. I am also dedicated to being playful and affectionate to every dog. I am also experienced in taking care of senior dogs because I had to put medication in my childhood dog’s wet food before she passed away on February 12th. I hope you can trust me to take care of your furry friend(s) because they are our family 💕 (Updated 7/26/25) •I am currently an online full-time college student at ECU working towards my Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Technology and I am currently working part time at a grocery store. •I graduated with my associate’s degree for Information Systems Support in 2024. •Other than my college workload, my part time job and taking care of my kitten, my fiancés cat, and my fiancés dad’s cat, I have pretty open availability in the mornings and afternoons. Due to my 2nd shift job, some days I will not be able to do anything past 3:00 PM Eastern Time. •Availability will be more limited my Fall semester due to having a higher load of classes. My fall semester starts on August 25th, 2025. For dogs: •I will provide a Q&A questionnaire so I will take knowledge on what is best for your dog.

About: When I was a kid I would walk my neighborhoods dog. I baby sit my sisters dog often and I had an ESA (Emotional Support Animal) but she passed away in July. I currently still have my 8 year old St.Dane but he can’t do much these days because of how old he is. I’d like to be more active and teach my kids responsibility and hard work. Just looking to help someone in my spare time is all. I had 2 dogs but one of them unfortunately recently passed. We love and spend time with our big guy. He’s my kids best friend.

About: I’m a 20-year-old college athlete currently playing volleyball at Gardner-Webb University. I’ve been taking care of dogs for several years and have experience with breeds ranging from French Bulldogs to medium-sized mixed breeds. Friends and family trust me to walk, feed, and care for their pets with love and attention. I’m dependable, responsible, and truly enjoy spending time with dogs—whether it’s playtime, a relaxing walk, or just hanging out together. As a student-athlete with a flexible schedule, I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets—especially for walks, drop-ins, or weekend boarding. I’m usually available weekdays after 10 AM and most weekends. I make sure to plan around your pet’s needs and routines, so they always feel cared for and comfortable. I live in Statesville and offer pet care in your home, where your pet feels most comfortable and secure. I always prioritize safety and follow your instructions carefully to keep your pet happy and healthy. I’m trustworthy, dependable, and committed to treating your home and your pet with the same respect and care I would expect for my own.

About: I've had dogs my whole life and for the past several years I've fostered dogs through a local dog rescue. I've handled dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments and love them all! I'm a stay at home mom so I'm available just about any day, any time. Feel free to Let me know if you have any questions. I'm a reliable, trustworthy, and responsible person. While I'm there you shouldn't have to worry about anything. Peace of mind is one of the most important things when leaving your pet with someone.

About: I’ve owned pets of my own since I was 10. I’ve also done dog sitting for neighbors and friends, while caring for my own three dogs. I have a 9 year old min pin who i’ve had since she was 8 weeks old. She was the family dog who now lives with me and my husband. I have a 2 year old GoldenDoodle who my husband and I raised from a puppy together. We also have a 3 year old mixed dog we rescued from an abusive home. My husband and I both work part time so your babies would not be home alone very long. We are at home by 1 everyday! I have a fenced in 1 acre yard where my dogs love to play all through out the day. Your dogs will get plenty of supervised exercise and outside time. We also have an extra crate, bowls, leashes and toys!

About: I’ve had dogs since a very young age, and currently have 1 large dog. She’s a certified lovable crackhead. I’ve had cats before but don’t currently as mine thinks she can harass them. I enjoy training dogs in my free time as I work with mine regularly. I work EMS so my schedules a little weird but I’d love to help out with your fur babies. I can handle medication administration and CPR if needed. Whatever their play needs are I can work around. Whether they love long or short walks I can provide as well. I work healthcare so my schedules a little but I’ll make something work! Drop ins and walks would be the best options for me but feel free to reach out! I wouldn’t be able to care for any babies in my home but I can easily assist at yours. My baby is on a schedule of 7a/7p is breakfast/dinner. She goes outside when she alerts me, and is free roam when outside. I can follow any instructions you provide otherwise I’d care for your babies like I would mine (probably spoil them).

“My dog Destiny is some what hesitant around strangers. She went straight to Kami. On time and very professional with an obvious love for animals. Will definitely hire again in the future.”

Or multiple times a day on Thursday-Sunday At the moment I’m not able to care for pets in my home, but that won’t prevent me from taking care of your fur babies.

They are also always welcome in my home as long as they have a leash and are housebroken or crated during the day (I will check on them during my lunches as well). If they're staying in my home, I will check on them during my lunch as well as guarantee they are fed on time, that they have plenty of water, and we will walk once I'm home from work.

Allanna V.
“Allanna V. would make a amazing dog sitter or walker! She grew up around animals and has raised her own animals and taken care of other peoples animals. Not only dogs and cats but reptiles as well. She has a great personality and loves pets and their owners. She is a very hard worker and puts her heart and soul into her work. She feels animals are family members not pets, anytime she or a family member loses an animal it breaks her heart. She feels her own animals are her children. She would love to do this kind of work!”

I can say with full confidence that Jessie will be a great addition to rover.com”

“Nicole is AMAZING! I have two miniature schnauzers—one is a senior who needs a little extra TLC, and the other is diabetic with several medical needs. I'm very particular when it comes to the care of my fur babies, and Nicole went above and beyond to make sure they were well taken care of. She took the time to truly understand their routines and needs, and I could tell she genuinely cared for them. I highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and attentive pet sitter. She's a true gem!”

They sent me picture updates and Bambi looked like she was having the best time with them and their dogs. I would recommend Ashleigh and her husband for any pet needs, they are so sweet and attentive!”
