“Roxanna is a kind soul who is greatly appreciated. She is loved by my cat and greatly appreciated by me. I have been booking with her since I started with Rover and I know my baby girl is in good hands with her.”
“Stephanie did an outstanding job taking care of my cat Polina while I was on vacation. Her updates were thorough and had many pictures which let me know that Polina was in good hands. She went above and beyond by giving special treats, lots of playtime, and timely care for my cat. I will be using Stephanie in the future for cat care and would highly recommend her for other pet owners!”
About: I have been caring for pets my entire life and started providing professional pet care about seven years ago. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities, including energetic puppies and kittens, senior pets, and animals that need extra patience, attention, and compassionate care. I am currently in school Monday through Thursday. During those days, I am available for morning visits around 8:00 a.m. and evening visits after 5:00 p.m. I have open availability Friday through Sunday, allowing me to spend plenty of quality time with your furry friends and provide them with the care, attention, and exercise they deserve. I will come to your home to walk, feed, and play with your dog or cat while providing plenty of love and attention. I will serve the food and treats you provide, refill fresh water, and clean food and water bowls after each feeding. If your pet requires medication, I can administer it according to your instructions. I will also clean litter boxes for cats and dispose of pet waste during every visit to keep your home clean and your pets comfortable.
“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.”
About: I have a variety of animal experience, ranging from reptiles to horses and cows! I’ve owned cats my entire life, as well as taking care of neighbors/families/friends dogs for the past 6 years. Throughout highschool I worked closely with horses whether that be riding or interning at a horse barn. Additionally, I’ve taken 3 years of animal science courses including earning my Veterinary Assisting Certification. This has provided me with a multitude of hands on experience with animals of all sizes and ages, including senior animals and animals needing close medical care; I have experience administering medication to a variety of animals. While studying animal science at Penn state I am gaining more classroom/hands on experience with large animals through my coursework and club involvement. Lastly, this summer I am working as a Kennel tech where I am in charge of caring for and playing with a range of dogs simultaneously. I work part time as a kennel tech 4-5 days a week giving me a ton of free time to spend with your pets! I care for my own cats on the daily by feeding them, cleaning their living area, and playing with them. I am in the triangle area until I move back to school on August 20th! While I am not able to provide services within my own home, I will treat yours as my top priority. I am very confident in new spaces and adapting to whatever makes your pet the most comfortable.
“Rosemary was great with my boys, sat with them on every visit and sent me pictures of them while she was taking care of them. This was the second time that I have used Rover and both times I’ve been very pleased with the care of my animals.”
“Audrey took amazing care of my pups and kept me updated the whole time, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely cares and pays attention to the little details.”
“Shannon is absolutely fabulous. She came for a meet and greet and Kiwi loved her immediately! I felt so comfortable with her caring for my baby. 10/10 highly recommend her incredible services :)”
“This is the second time Wendy watched our two kitties and she had above expectations of care for them while we were gone! This was a 2 week trip and my husband and I are always a little worried for our one diabetic cat, but Wendy always kept us in the loop on his glucose numbers and administered the appropriate amount of insulin. Thanks again!!”
“Lara has been incredibly consistent and Fozzy loves her. I also appreciate she will play some fetch with him at the end of the walk. He may enjoy that as much as the walk.”
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!
“Maria saved the day! Our cats needed caring for on a very short notice, and luckily she was available and super accommodating! She goes above and beyond and the cats love her <3”
“I can’t recommend Sarah enough! She took wonderful care of my older dog, who has significant mobility challenges, and treated her with such patience and kindness. She went above and beyond to make sure my Baylee’s special needs were met and she was comfortable and safe. Truly grateful!”
“Pamela took such good care of our pups! Her communication is on point and I never had to worry. She was so sweet to take in my mail/packages too. We will definitely be contacting Pamela for future pet sits!!”
“Jenny always takes such good care of my two dogs! I can tell that they both love her, and I am able to fully relax during vacations knowing that they are in excellent hands with her!”

Sriya always takes such good care of my two cats! She is highly detail-oriented, punctual, and an animal-lover to her core. She gives us great peace of mind with plenty of pictures and thorough updates. Whether it’s daily drop-in visits, or a multi-day overnight stay, she has been incredibly respectful of our home and the boundaries of our (admittedly difficult) cats. I highly recommend her services!!
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 :-)
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!
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!
Booked jade last minute for a trip we’d be away for and she was so great. She communicated with us throughout her time with our dog, she seemed to care a great deal for him, and was timely with the pictures while there as well. Would definitely book again and recommend!

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.
