“Stephanie has been amazing since the beginning . She came to the house on her time off to meet our dogs and she got all details on how to keep great care of them while we were gone . Multiple times a day she sent us pictures and updates and our dogs loved her . Thank you so much for being so nice and caring . Definitely recommend her if you need a great dog sitters …. Giulia & Filippo”

“Megan was amazing with my two girls! She was reliable, communicative, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. I could tell my pups were well taken care of and comfortable the entire time. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter :)”

“Jenny was phenomenal! I was so nervous that this was my first time away from my dog for that many days at time. But her communication, cleaniness, personality and so much more helped me get through my trip while putting my anxiety of missing my fur babe at ease!”

“I highly recommend Jill as a pet sitter. She took exceptional care of my two Maine Coon cats while I was away and gave me complete peace of mind. She spent quality time playing with them, making sure they received plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. Jill also went above and beyond by keeping my home clean and tidy throughout her stay. It was wonderful to return to a well-maintained house and two happy, relaxed cats. One thing I especially appreciated was the regular updates and photos she sent. Seeing my cats comfortable and well cared for made being away from them much easier.”

“Chanel was awesome!! Treated my babies like gold, even though my senior dog was a butthead who was actively rebelling against my being gone by doing his business indoors. She was calm, easygoing, and so very sweet to my babies. Will definitely be booking again!”

“Carol is amazing. My dogs were so well taken care of. I did not worry at all about them. My one dog has been difficult with eating lately and Carol was more than willing to do whatever it took to ensure she ate. I would absolutely trust her to stay with my dogs anytime.”

About: What sets me apart is my genuine, lifelong love for animals. I truly believe pets are too good for this world and deserve endless love, patience, and attention. I don’t see them as “just pets,” but as family members who deserve to feel safe, happy, and understood. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, which has given me strong knowledge of their needs, typical behaviors, and what they should and shouldn’t eat. I’m naturally patient and kind, love taking dogs on walks and to dog parks, and focus on positively reinforcing good behavior so every pet feels confident, cared for, and loved. 🐾❤️ I am available to engage in dog care Monday- Friday, and Saturday and Sundays if told with enough time in advance. I am flexible and can work with different schedules. I am very respectful of each owners routine for their fur babies and can navigate complex instructions for their care. The pets wellbeing always comes first, and my care will focus on their safety, joy, and needs.
“Nayeli was responsive to texts and my dog, Roxie, like her very much. Due to weather delays and missing baggage, she stayed later than originally planned which made a horrible travel day much better since I wasn’t stressing out about my baby. She cleaned up after herself and my house was exactly as I left it.”

“Brie and Gabby were exceptional! They took great care of my boy while I was out of town. Apollo absolutely loved them and actually searched the house for them the morning after they had already left 🤣. Brie will definitely be my go to for the duration of my time in Las Vegas!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals dogs and cats since little around 10 years old for my neighbors/parents friends/ family’s and referrals. They have relied on me to feed, walk, bathe, stick to schedules and love their fur babies as if they were my own. I have trained all my dogs and family members dog basic commands while also introducing new animals to each other. I have worked with puppy’s adult dogs even prior abused dogs that need a little bit more patience and care. I care for these animals as if they were mine to make sure they get the most love and attention. I’m currently working from home with my own schedule, I’m available every day of the week for boarding, drop ins, walks or whatever your needs may be! I live in a town home with my husband no kids we have a gated community with a gated court yard out front but would be going on walks with three dog parks in the community for off leash play time. If coming to your home I will follow whatever instructions are given to me to care for your animals and respect your home as much as I would for mine. I would keep my two dogs separate from yours unless advised otherwise! Kennels are welcome if needed but we have plenty of toys and enrichment toys to keep them busy!
“Faith did amazing! She was so sweet with all of my babies. I have 2 dogs (one came out of town with me), 3 cats, 2 turtles, and a gecko, so I have quite the crew! She checked on my reptiles, cuddled with my dog all day, and continuously checked in on both my kittens and my older cat. Her communication was amazing, and she sent me tons of photos and updates throughout my trip. When I got home, the house was picked up and everything and everyone looked great. She truly went above and beyond! I 100% recommend Faith and will definitely continue using her in the future!”

“Shando was amazing with our dogs. We have 2 very enthusiastic French bulldogs and he was able to calm them within moments of their initial meeting. He stayed in our home and took the dogs walking while we were away sending pictures and updates. When we returned home the dogs were so relaxed and happy. It was truly the best experience with a dog sitter we have had to date. We look forward to welcoming Shando back when we leave for another trip.”


About: I had a dachshund for 16 years from my early childhood to adulthood so I understand now important are dogs and cats are to us as they are family to us but I have been taking care of dogs for around 15 years since most of my family members have had dogs or cats all varying form 100 pound Great Danes to little dachshunds so overall I understand what it takes to take care of these family members and what to look out for I am currently in online college and work part time usually I work 4-6 hour shifts so outside of that I’m able to watch after your loving pets and make sure they are fine and having a wonderful time! I understand that trust and safety is crucial when my dachshund was running around the house we always made sure to beware of her back since they can get IVD and with any dog it’s good to understand what should and shouldn’t happen as some pets can have underlying issues we may not see
“Brandon was great with my dog and 2 cats! He was prompt and communicated well. House was left clean. My dog absolutely loved him! I would definitely recommend him to anyone! I will use him again in the future.”
“Haley was the absolute best! From the second I met her I knew my sweet Sugar would be in good hands. I needed to find a sitter while I was on vacation and couldn’t be happier that I found Haley! She stayed at my home and gave me updates and pics. She even went out of her way to bring us and pick us up from the airport really late at night. Haley is warm, trustworthy, and kind and you can tell she really loves animals (and they love her) Will definitely be using her again in the future. Thanks a million!!!!”

“Poly is always great with our pup. It makes us feel at ease to see our dog get so excited to see her. We know our pup is in good hands and she leaves the house in better condition than we left it.”

I'm open on weekends for boarding or pet sitting, weekdays I'm home by 6:30. Someone is always home and I can take your fur babies with me to work! I have a fenced yard, with 3 little Yorkie/Chihuahua mixed dogs to keep your fur babies company. I have toys and beds in the house that they have free range of.

About: I have been caring for pets for several years, including running my own house and pet sitting business in the UK. During that time, I provided dog walking, overnight pet sitting, and long term in home care for repeat clients, often during extended holidays. I work full time during the day on weekdays, so I am best suited to overnight stays, evenings, early mornings, weekends, and longer bookings where pets are comfortable with a normal daytime routine. I have experience with dogs and cats of all sizes, including senior pets, anxious animals, and multi pet households. I am comfortable administering medication and understand how important routine, patience, and a calm approach are, especially for pets who may feel unsettled when their owners are away. My focus is always on making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their own environment. I am reliable, detail oriented, and take pride in following instructions closely while keeping owners updated and reassured. I work full time during the day on weekdays, so I am best suited to pets who are comfortable with a normal daytime routine. I am available for morning and evening care, overnight stays, weekends, and longer bookings. I make sure pets are fed, exercised, and settled before leaving for work, and I spend quality time with them again as soon as I return in the evening. I keep routines consistent and always ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing are always my top priority. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, behaviour, and individual needs so I can provide consistent, attentive care in a calm and familiar environment. Alongside my experience in pet care, I also have a background in social work, which has strengthened my ability to be responsible, observant, and trustworthy. It has developed my attention to detail, communication skills, and my ability to remain calm and reliable in different situations, all of which carry over into how I care for pets and homes. I treat every home with respect, keeping it secure, clean, and well looked after. I follow instructions closely, maintain clear communication, and provide updates so you can feel confident while you are away. My approach is patient, calm, and attentive, helping pets feel safe, settled, and well cared for at all times.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 1,691 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Apex. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Apex 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 Apex 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 Apex 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 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.

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.
