About: Hi! My name is Phinette! Growing up, I have always been a huge animal lover. As a child, I had three small dogs who I am so grateful I got to grow up with until they were in their late teens. My family rescued our current pit bull mix, Oakley, 6 years ago, who is now reaching his elderly years, as well as six cats! I truly love seeing the different personalities in each animal and finding out what makes them unique. I am great with high energy dogs including puppies and love being active, so I would love to help get their energy out with lots of activity! I’m currently a Physical Therapist Assistant student, and my availability and preferred service areas will change throughout my clinical rotations. House Sitting • Now–November 20: Clinical rotation in Lillington. Time can vary but typically 8-4 Monday-Friday. I’m primarily looking to book sittings closer to Lillington during weekdays. • January 18–February 26: Clinical rotation in Raleigh. I will not know my schedule until it gets closer to the date. I’m primarily looking to book sittings closer to Raleigh. • March 15–April 23: Clinical rotation in Sanford. I will not know my schedule until it gets closer to the date. I’m primarily looking to book sittings closer to Sanford. Dog Walks & Drop-In Visits During clinical rotations, I’m primarily available on weekday evenings and throughout the weekends. I know how scary it can be to have someone you don’t know stay in your home and care for your pet. That’s why it’s really important to me to build a relationship and trust with my clients, so it doesn’t feel like a stranger is in your home. I’ll make sure your pet and your home are in the best care possible while you’re away, and I have a feeling your pet and I will become best friends by the time you get back! I absolutely love sending pictures and updates, so you’ll never have to wonder how your pet is doing while you’re gone! If you’re someone who doesn’t need as many updates, that’s completely fine too. I’m happy to send them as often or as little as you’d like. I also make sure to check my phone regularly while house sitting, so you’ll always be able to reach me if you need anything. I’m someone who actually loves detailed instructions because they help me make sure I’m doing everything exactly how your pet is used to. I want to keep their normal routine as much as possible while you’re away. I’m also a bit of a neat freak, so you may come home to your house looking a little cleaner than when you left it!

About: I have taken care of lots of pets and have had a bunch of pets my self. I have an orange cat who loves to play and I have a bearded dragon as well. I’ve taken care of 5 dogs at once that were all high energy but so loving. I’ve had experience with bigger dogs like great Danes and German shepherds. I’m in college and have classes at 11:00-11:50 and on some days I have a class at 3:00. And I work 4-10 on Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday and Sundays.

Then after awhile I will get my bearded dragon out and let him explore I also clean his cage and feed him. For my clients I can follow there schedule they have in place for there pets and I will treat them like my own.

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the level of care, responsibility, and attention I bring to every pet as if they were my own. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely enjoy building trust with animals so they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m especially good with maintaining routines, whether that’s feeding schedules, daily walks, or playtime that matches each pet’s energy level. I’m also attentive to details like behavior changes, medication instructions, and special dietary needs. What really makes me different is my calm and consistent approach, which helps nervous or shy pets warm up over time. I’m also comfortable with active dogs that need structured exercise and engagement, as well as older pets who may need slower, more gentle care and extra attention. Overall, I focus on communication, dependability, and creating a stress-free experience for both pets and owners. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I structure my schedule to allow flexibility and consistency. I’m used to balancing responsibilities like classes, studying, and personal commitments, so I’m good at planning ahead and staying reliable with set times. On a daily basis, I’m available in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings depending on the day, and I make it a priority to stay consistent with feeding times, walks, and check-ins. I’m also comfortable adjusting my schedule when needed for longer visits, overnight care, or pets that need more frequent attention. Weekly, I’m able to plan around my commitments so I can reliably take on recurring bookings or regular clients. I’m organized and communicate clearly, so pet owners can always feel confident that their pet’s routine will be followed closely. Overall, I see pet care as something I can seamlessly build into my week because I enjoy it and I’m intentional about managing my time well. I treat their space and their pets with the same respect and love I would in my own home. I follow any instructions carefully, whether it’s feeding schedules, potty routines, or special needs, and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I keep their routine as normal as possible with walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles. I also keep the home tidy, send regular updates and photos, and make sure everything is just as you left it. My goal is to give your pet comfort and you peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I have grown up around animals and throughout that time have gained skills that help with sitting and with that it allows me to be a better sitter. I have been around all ages of cats and dogs my whole life and have been sitting regularly since I was thirteen. I’m currently in school and not very busy with classes, so I’ll be readily available to fulfill any petting sitting needs that are needed. I will usually check in and/or walk in the morning or in the evening. My dog gets walked twice a day at minimum because he tends to want to get that much energy out. This usually happens at night and I would be able to walk any dogs at the same level which I do mine.

About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets, both big and small. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including those with special needs, disabilities, and medical conditions that require extra patience and attention. In addition to dogs, I have experience caring for cats with different personalities and care requirements, as well as fish and other small animals. I’ve also spent time around farm animals, so I’m comfortable handling a range of species and environments. Because of this background, I understand how important it is to provide not just basic care, but also comfort, safety, and individualized attention for each animal. I’m attentive to behavior, feeding routines, and any special instructions to make sure every pet feels secure and well cared for while you’re away. I am a full time college student taking online classes, and I have a remote part time job. This means that my hours are flexible and it's easy for me to travel or do tasks for pets throughout the day. I always make safety and comfort my top priority when caring for pets, whether it’s in my home or a client’s home. I stick closely to each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions, so they feel as comfortable as possible. I’m very attentive to behavior and surroundings, making sure doors, gates, and any potential hazards are secure at all times. I also keep a clean, calm environment and make sure pets always have access to fresh water, a safe space to relax, and plenty of attention. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe and well cared for while you’re away.

Anna was super polite, friendly and responsive. Anna made sure to meet with me and my little furball prior to our booking. Once it was time to check in on my cat she spent time with him. I believe that my cat had a good time with her as he’s super affectionate and friendly. I will for sure be booking Anna in the future for any cat sitting services. Thank you!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Cape Fear

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Cape Fear is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 659 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Cape Fear. 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% 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.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
