“Breanna did a wonderful job taking care of Binky. She was so kind and gracious when we needed to reschedule the time we would need help with him. I can tell Binky really enjoyed his time with her - the day we got back, he was sitting on the stairs waiting for her! 🤣 I highly recommend Breanna if you want to find someone to take great care of your pet. I will certainly be booking with her again.”

About: I’ve been raising and caring for dogs since I was about 9 years old so I'm used to everything from teacup pups to massive dogs. I’m completely unfazed by dogs who are a little rough or have tons of energy to burn. Plus, if your furry best friend needs any special accommodations or extra care, I’ve got the patience and the time to make sure they feel completely safe and loved. Since I work from home full-time, pet care is already built right into my daily routine. I'm constantly stepping away from my desk to play with or check on my own dog, and I always use my lunch break for a long walk outside. Your pup will get the same love and affection all day long. I want to make your pup feel like they're at a second home, so whatever their normal routine is, we'll make it happen. My own dog has free reign of the place from my bed to the couch and yours will absolutely get that same VIP treatment. Since I live in a cozy apartment, we usually get all our energy out during our walks outside. I'm very flexible so if your dog prefers chilling in their crate or if you want to stick to a specific routine just let me know and I'll gladly follow.
“My cats can be shy but Katherine is a pet whisperer and was able to coax them out of their hiding places. Great to work with, reliable, I was able to enjoy my trip knowing my pets were being well cared for. The pictures made my day each morning. Thank you Katherine!”
“Catlin was a gem 💎 my baby boy was well taken care of from the beginning till the end if you are looking for a lifesaver and a great hearted person she’s your sitter your baby’s will be very well taken care of you won’t be disappointed in catlin she’s the best! Thanks 😊 for everything 🙏❤️”
About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life, but 4 years ago I adopted a staffordshire terrier with behavioral issues. Since then I have been committed to training him and working through desensitizing him to his triggers. My mom is a dog trainer and has taught me a lot about dog psychology and behavior. During high school I volunteered at a local rescue to walk and feed the dogs there. My family started fostering dogs from the same rescue so I have had plenty of experience with all kinds of dogs. I am committed to making every dog live a happy, healthy life! I just moved to the Raleigh area and am applying for full time jobs, but right now my schedule is completely open! I am finishing up my masters degree in accounting at ECU online. I have a dog so adding in extra dog walks in my routine is no problem at all! I keep my dog on a strict schedule with walks and feeding times, so I understand if you need that for your own pet! He has behavioral issues so I am experienced in caring for dogs with "extra needs". I can easily walk and crate dogs. Whatever your pet needs, I will happily make that happen!
About: Hi. My name is Grace and I’d love the opportunity to take care of and treat your fur baby with lots and lots of love! I’ve had cats and dogs in my family since I was a kid. Now post college, I’ve been fortunate enough to adopt my own pup! As many friends and family members have pets as well I have been the go-to for sitting. I have experience sitting for puppies and adult dogs, giving medication, following a feeding and walking schedule, and sending tons of videos and photos (daily) as I know you’ll be missing your furry family member! I currently work from home so my schedule is extremely flexible and allows me to focus on your fur baby through the day. Although I live in a townhouse, I am nearby a dog park and have lots of grass and walking area. My daily routine is taking my pup to the dog park in the morning before work for a good half hour and after work as well. We have a great dog community so we love going on walks and meeting other dogs at the dog park. Your pet is cared for as if they were my own. My apartment is quite spacious and comfy so your pet will feel right at home! I normally do meet ups as well so your dog can be comfortable in my townhouse and with my pup before you’re ready to entrust them with me. I'm happy to follow your care instructions to keep their routine consistent while they are in my care.
“Kasey is the best! Every time we need her she is available and she is the most reliable and consistent person we’ve had watch our cats! She always goes above and beyond to make sure all of our cats needs are met. Thank you so much Kasey!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cary
Sabrina has taken great care of my boy, Buddy! She is very reliable and has been flexible with last minute booking requests. She sends really great updates/pictures after her visits which make me feel less nervous about leaving him! I would definitely recommend!
This was our first booking together, and I had a great experience! She took the time to come meet Prada and me beforehand, which really helped put my mind at ease as a first-time puppy owner. Prada liked her immediately, and it was clear she was comfortable with her. She was reliable, caring, and treated Prada like her own. I felt confident knowing Prada was in good hands and will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!
I can’t recommend Annalise enough! She has been checking in on my French Bulldog puppy, Prada, while I’m at work, and the experience has been fantastic. As a first-time puppy owner, leaving a young puppy alone was stressful, but they immediately put my mind at ease. She is reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. She always sends photos and updates during their visits, which I look forward to and really appreciate throughout the day. Prada absolutely loves them and gets excited when they come by, which tells me everything I need to know about the care and attention she’s receiving. Knowing she is getting potty breaks, playtime, and affection while I’m away has been invaluable. Thank you for taking such great care of Prada. I will gladly be booking again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring pet sitter! All around a genuinely good person and it shows for sure I couldn’t have asked for better!
Emily took absolutely wonderful care of our fur babies! I was so appreciative of how detail oriented she was and the questions she asked ahead of time to get to know our animals and their routines. I am somewhat of an anxious pet mom, but I felt confident leaving them in Emily’s care and we couldn’t have left them in better hands. She went above and beyond with the actual care of our pets and was very patient even though our dog took her sweet time to go potty in the heavy rain. Our cat also seemed relaxed when we got home, which is impressive since she tends to be a very anxious kitty.
Faith is my go-to for watching out pets because she is always SO amazing with all of them! She was able to accommodate a last minute trip away and I am so grateful to never have to worry about my pets while they are in her care, especially with one of my cats having special needs. I will always highly, highly recommend her and all 4 of my pets love her!
So grateful for the care you gave our dog while we were away. Knowing you were stopping by each day gave us real peace of mind. The daily picture meant so much — it was such a comfort to see our dog happy and well cared for. Thank you for being so reliable, thoughtful, and kind. We’re lucky to have you. 💛

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 Cary 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.
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 Cary 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!
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 dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Cary with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
