“Alexis took great care of our dogs while we were away for the holidays! They seemed to really enjoy her care and company, and she went the extra mile making sure they had everything they needed. She was also very communicative and kept us informed at all times. 10/10, would book again.”
“Sandy was awsome! We needed someone to provide visits throughout the day and she changed her schedule to accomodate ours. She was so awsome with our dog, providing checkin visit. Her kindness, professionalism and true passion shined through! Would highly recommend! ❤️🐶🐶”
“During our 7 day absence, Jenna took amazing care of our big, socially demanding, sweet cat!! Daily reports and pics clearly reflected interactive play time and our satisfied cat. Upon return, our cat was very settled and did not show any signs of stress. In addition, Jenna took care of the environment. Our cat is a messy eater and sheds horribly. No evidence of said mess was left behind. We are already planning our next experience with Jenna❤️”
“We are so grateful to have found Emma upon moving to Emerald Isle. She took fantastic care of our cat and was so loving to him! Emma was very communicative and gave us so much peace of mind. Thanks Emma! 🐾💕”
About: I have always grown up with animals and my love for them led me to a job at a pet resort. I was a kennel technician for 4 years which provided me great insight to care for all types of furry friends. I just graduated college from UNC Charlotte and home in Emerald Isle for the summer. Most days I workout and hang with my family so my schedule is pretty flexible. I always try to keep each pet’s routine as close as possible to what they’re used to because I know how stressful change can feel—especially for anxious pets. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive, and I make it my priority to provide comfort, consistency, and lots of love while they’re away from their parents.
“Callie did great with my dog Sonic, he is very timid with new people but warmed up to her very quickly when she came over the meet and great. We have several events planned for the future and I definitely will be booking again with her.”
About: I absolutely love animals. I've had dogs and cats since I was 6. Since then I've help train a service dog and fostered many other dogs. I currently have three dogs: chihuahua mix, pug rat terrier mix, and a great Pyrenees. I currently am a personal trainer so I don’t have a set schedule. I will be able to let the pet outside or spend time with them in between clients. I can take the pets on daily walks, depending on their schedule and when they like to. I like to know where the food is and if they get treats for doing specific things.
“Ashleigh was great! Our babies were very well taken care of, she sent pictures each visit, had great communication and we felt completely comfortable with her watching our pups”
About: I’ve been caring for pets since middle school and have over 7 years of experience with pups and cats of all ages and temperaments. As a landscape architecture student at Virginia Tech, I love spending time outside and staying active—whether that means long walks, hikes, or just backyard playtime. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me for years to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets like my own. I treat every animal with patience, joy, and genuine care. I’m home this summer from school so I am quite flexible, and since I have a car, I can easily travel to homes, parks, trails, or wherever works best for you! I do my best to make your pet feel comfy and cared for, whether I’m hanging out at your place or taking them for a walk. I’ll follow whatever routine you’ve got and use whatever leash or gear you prefer. If your pup needs to be crated at certain times, I’ve got no problem with that—and I’ll make sure they’re settled and relaxed. I’m also comfortable giving meds if needed, just let me know the details :)
“Thank you for taking care of Buoy while I was away. Cara was open to a drop-in visit to give my wild man some attention while I traveled. She sent pictures of him of him playing ball and relaxing after playtime.”
“Robyn did an excellent job taking care of our boy. Very professional and updated us every day. We had 0 issues and I would consider that she went above and beyond for our friend. Highly recommend and we will be repeat clients. Thanks Robyn!!”
“Sarah was amazing! I received the sweetest pictures of my cats each visit! My male cat needs twice daily insulin shots and Sarah had no trouble at all. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I have 2 dogs and 4 cats of my own, so I have a full, loving house. My babies are rescues and my heart. They range from 9 years old to 1 year old. I have been involved in pet rescues for over 20 years and have watched several pets for many military deployments when we were stationed at Norfolk Naval Base . I treat every pet I meet as family, I make sure all needs are met and safely follow all special request, diets etc. I am very easy to reach at all times and available for emergencies also. I know at home that's mine. Please feel assured when I am with your pets they are being very spoiled. Have a great PAWS Day! Pet care is my life! I do it every day and anytime needed. My animals are my first priority in my household. They bring me tremendous joy! Petcare is a PRIORITY in my home! Even my grandbabies know MawMaw loves and spoils everyone! I have a home with furbabies and my daughters with many more furbabies I prioritize safety,health and we'll being of every pet/pets I am watching .

About: You can rest easy when you are away or at work knowing I will love and care for your pet as if they were mine I have a very flexible schedule and can offer 24/7 care. Your pets will never be left unattended. They can stay with me or i can go to your house for visits I have a very friendly Goldendoodle and a cat.

“Kaylie was awesome with Asher and Sadie. She had patiences with them as it was storming and they were hesitant to go out. But she took them out a few times after the rain let up a little and they finally did their business. She was on time and provided details and asked lots of questions.”
About: I've always had a dog in the family to care for and now I get the pleasure of caring for my "granddogs"! I feel comfortable administering medicines and accommodating special needs your best friend may have! I just recently retired and am looking to fill the hours I would normally be working with jobs from Rover. I am typically available Monday through Thursday but do occasionally shift my schedule to accommodate travelling with my better half! I typically offer services away from my home being that I do not have a fenced in area for play time. I feel more comfortable coming to your fur baby's home to check in on them.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Cape Carteret
Ashleigh went above and beyond with our fur babies! We have 3 rescues, all with different personalities and issues. She even had success with my overly anxious, fearful girl with severe separation anxiety! Ashleigh is a true professional and must be a dog whisperer! 😊 She understood my directions regarding each dog’s unique personalities and tips to help with each one and did an awesome job! Her communications are prompt, detailed and friendly! We definitely recommend her and will use again!
Sandy took excellent care of our 3 kitties - from feeding them to cleaning the litter boxes ( & any messes they made) and spending time with them. She kept us informed and was very responsive and detailed. We highly, highly recommend her services. She truly loves animals and was a professional through and through. Thank you again, Sandy!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 291 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Cape Carteret. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cape Carteret. On Rover:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
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.
