Pet Sitting & Drop Ins In Central

“Sophia was wonderful! She watched my cat over the weekend and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable or grateful. We did a meet & greet beforehand, which immediately put me at ease and made me feel confident allowing her into my home. The booking was originally scheduled for one day, but when my plans changed and I had to stay longer, Sophia was incredibly flexible and kindly offered to come an extra day. She sent plenty of photos and updates, and it was clear my cat was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. I truly felt like my cat was safe and in great hands the entire time. I would absolutely book with Sophia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”

“I’m so grateful for Sarah! She took such great care of my very shy cat, and coaxed him to open up to her. I had some out-there instructions based on my trip and pet car situation, but she handled everything perfectly. Very communicative and so sweet!”

“Garrett was so wonderful!”

About: I’ve taken care of large breed dogs for the past 6 years. Additionally I have experience administering oral medication to dogs. Making sure that animals are completely comfortable in every interaction is my goal. I’m currently working part time for about 14 hours a week so my schedule is pretty flexible. I also have a form of reliable transportation for making house calls. I will follow any instructions set out by you. My goal is to take care of your pet as if they’re my own and I strive to make sure they feel loved and cared for in every interaction.

About: I’m a Junior at NCSU in the Pre-Vet program! I am a certified vet assistant, worked as a kennel attendant, and I volunteer with a local cat rescue often. I have experience with aggressive, disabled, and high energy animals, as well as all types of species! I can’t wait to meet your pet and give them the best care! I am currently taking classes but I am flexible in the mornings and evenings to take care of your pet! I am often free and have a flexible schedule on weekends. I will walk dogs with awareness and attentiveness of your pet, and during house visits I will make sure your pet is comfortable, happy, and healthy! I will make sure your pet is active and playing, and I don't mind attending to other requests while you're away.

“This was our first time booking Paige and she did amazing! Great communication and sent the cutest photos of our cats. We knew the girls were well loved and taken care of. We highly recommend her!”

“I could not have asked for a sweeter, kinder companion for my dog. Courtney was thoughtful and caring. She kept this nervous pet parent updated and sent pictures to reassure me all was well. I needed an extra day and she stepped up to do it. I will hire her whenever the need arises and she is available.”

About: Dog lover who isn’t quite ready for one of my own yet. My family has two dogs who are my whole world, and I miss them now that I’ve moved out. I work from home a couple days a week as a graphic designer, so I’m always looking for an excuse to step away from the computer for some fresh air and quality dog time. I’ll treat your dog like one of my own! I am always working during the week so i don't get to get outside and enjoy the fresh air as often as i would like to. Walking dogs has become a fun way for me to get outside and also get my dog fill. I live by myself and so i am able to give all my attention to your pet. I love snuggles on the couch and have a safe and welcoming home. I live across from a park with a big walking loop which makes walks a breeze!

“Carrington went above and beyond for us and Romeo!! It’s obvious how much they care about dogs! We can’t wait to have them back during our next trip!”

“Adreanna is a great sitter and my kitties love her! She’s very reliable, communicative and does such a great job. I appreciate her care so much while I’m away. Definitely recommend her :)”

“Alex was a fantasist caretaker of our two cats! He made sure all their chores were done daily and gave them plenty of attention and treats. I would certainly hire Alex again!”

“I could not have gotten a better sitter for my pup!! Rachel is the best! Punctual, communicative, exceptionally caring and gentle! We will book with Rover and Rachel again. Thank you!”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better pup sitter for my little Ellie. From the moment I left, I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such caring and capable hands. Elias went above and beyond to make sure Ellie was comfortable, happy, and well taken care of during my time away. I especially appreciated the regular updates, photos, and little notes about how she was doing—it really reassured me that she was enjoying herself and getting lots of love and attention. When family retuned home, Ellie was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. It’s not easy trusting someone else with your pet, but Elias made the whole experience stress-free. I would absolutely recommend Elias to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring dog sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”

About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember—they’ve always been part of my life. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, from playful puppies to more laid-back or shy dogs. I’ve helped with walks, feeding, and everyday care, and I really enjoy spending time with them. Friends and family trust me to look after their pets because they know I’m reliable and genuinely care. I treat every dog like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and can spend plenty of time with your pet throughout the day. I’m able to adjust to your pet’s routine, whether that’s regular walks, feeding times, or just keeping them company and making sure they’re not alone. I live in a pet-friendly 2 bed, 2 bath apartment with a spacious and bright living area where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. There’s a greenway right downstairs and Dix Park nearby, which makes it very convenient for safe and enjoyable walks. I always keep a clean, calm environment and pay close attention to each pet’s needs, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Olivia agreed to take care of our cats last minute when we had to travel out of town for a funeral! She was wonderful and our cats were very well taken care of. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve had dogs, cats, birds, bunnies, snakes, and even a tarantula while growing up, but canine companionship has been a constant throughout my life. I have watched many pets for friends and family throughout high school, college, and into my adult years. I’ve used Rover and other sitters before and know what it’s like to search for the perfect person to entrust you fur-babies with. I’ve had both great and not-so-great experiences in the past with sitters watching my dog, which is why I decided to join Rover myself so I could give other pets and pet-parents the best experiences! I have one extremely friendly pup and I work from home with a lot of flexibility, so I am available for any and all of your pets needs and attention while they are with me. You can expect lots of pictures, videos, and lightning-fast replies! I work from home with a very flexible schedule that allows me to get up and take the dogs for a walk or play at anytime. I can accommodate any pet care routine needed. I have a fenced yard and a super friendly King Charles Cavalier boy, neutered. Pets are allowed on the couch and the bed in this home 😌

“Corinne was great and stopped by on short notice. Would be glad to have her help out any time!”

“Michele was incredible with Thyme and Clove. She was able to make my shy cats feel comfortable and able to come and play. She did a wonderful job”
