Scott did a great job keeping our senior cat company while we were away! She loved the attention and was very happy when we returned. We will definitely plan to re-book Scott in the future.

Kim was an excellent sitter for our cat, Major Tom. We booked Kim for a drop-in visit for thirty minutes on two days. She spent the entire time with him and took 6-8 pictures each day. We had a few requests when she visited and did exactly what we asked. Kim was so loving to Major Tom, we felt so comfortable with her taking care of him. We plan to have Kim take care of him from now on, in the future. We highly recommend Kim to take care of your pets!

Cynthia is truly awesome! Boris (my golden boy) is very happy to see her every day during lunch time to go out for a nice 30 min walk.. When another person in rover, canceled at the last min, I was lucky to book Cynthia for a week. I can certainly tell that she goes above and beyond. I have extended her booking for the next 1 month and would definitely extend her for a long foreseeable future :) Thank you Cynthia for taking care of my fido :)

David was great, came over to meet my dog and was able to get her taken care of on short notice. He even was able to help again when I had to stay later than anticipated. Highly recommend.

About: I have a very calming, peaceful and patient nature. I let an animal approach me when they are ready. I start with appropriate treats and see how they react to me in order to build a relationship. I work part time until 6 every week day and I’m free on weekends, so I have plenty of time for walks to the park or to stay the night. In my home I have two dogs. I take them out twice a day for walks. They get plenty of belly rubs and kisses. One sleeps with me in my bed and is kind of my therapy dog, and he knows it!

Abby is my go-to Cat Sitter🐱🐱🙌🏻🙌🏻 I just spent 12 days in Italy and received pictures every day and feedback about how my girls were doing and she even sent me selfies with both of them! Truly five star Cat Sitter🐱🐱! I can always count on her to provide excellent care for my two kitties. Thank you, Abby! And thank you Rover for providing this amazing service! I would never have found Abby if it wasn’t for Rover. I jmoved to this area about 6 months ago and had to leave my regular cat sitter neighbor and I am so grateful that I found Abby through Rover! I have used Abby now for about eight different trips and she is spectacular!

First time using the service, my wife and i were very nervous at first. Melissa came over to meet us and our fury babies the day before we booked. She was very professional and mostly great with our fury babies, they loved her right away. We knew they would be in great hands while we were away. Highly recommend Melissa to anyone needing a great doggie sitter. We will be using her services in the future.

Courtney is a wonderful sitter for our little old lady cat. She gives her cuddles and treats every visit and makes sure she gets fresh air on the porch if weather allows. She is also a great communicator and follows directions for care exceptionally well. She is one of our go-to sitters :-)

Kelly is AMAZING! I reached out to her last minute and she not only accommodated my schedule but dropped by for a meet and greet before I left town. Working with Kelly is like talking to an old friend you’ve always been able to count on. Highly recommend! Will be using her moving forward for our pups. They love her! So does my mom (who was staying at my house at the time Kelly was taking care of my dogs). She’s top tier! Lovely human and great at what she does.

Roxanna was wonderful with our cat. This was the first time we left our very playful kitty by himself. Roxanna arrived on time 2x daily and gave us a thorough report with pictures about how he was doing. She was specific about his daily behaviors such as eating, crying and playing. We felt like Frankie was in great hands! Thank you!

Monica was terrific! Very professional and personable. I could tell from the pictures she would send while on her walks with my two doodles, they were comfortable with her. Knowing she was with my dogs gave me an extra sense of comfort while being away from my boys. I would definitely book her again.

Im so grateful to Nazneen and her husband Mossin for taking care of my cat while I was away! I was very glad that they were open to a meet and greet so I could show them what I needed to do. They were very communicative and caring, and even continued to provide excellent care despite an unexpected change in schedule. I felt so at ease knowing my cat was in their good hands!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Apex

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Apex on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 5,560 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Apex. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Apex stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Apex. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters 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 sitter.
