“Patrick is amazing. He communicates so well and spent extra time making sure our senior pitbull is as comfortable with him before his visit. It’s so wonderful knowing we have a reliable person to care for our dog while we’re away!”
“Sam was so fabulous with our shy girl! Sam was patient and our Mabel really seemed to warm up to her. Sam was detailed and we loved getting photos and videos. Highly recommend!”
“Considering that we have a special needs senior dog, Robin was willing and able to adjust her care expectations based on whatever I asked!. She is very communicative, understanding, and a real gem!”
“Allyson is an excellent dog sitter! She’s been wonderful with my YorkiePoo, Jamaica, while I work from home. She keeps him active and entertained throughout their time together, and it’s clear he genuinely enjoys her company. Jamaica always seems happy and well-exercised after their walks. I really appreciate how engaged and attentive she is with him. Highly recommend Allyson if you’re looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter!”

About: I was a humane society volunteer for three years and have experience with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes! Looking forward to spending time with your furry friends! I am currently working remotely full-time, so most of my time is available on weekends or check-ins throughout the week! I am also a morning person! I have experience house-sitting, so taking care of your pets in your home should be nothing new for me! Will always give a few extra pets before I leave :)
“Angela took wonderful care of our pets while we were away! She handled our somewhat complicated routine for food and medication without a hitch, and her thorough updates put our minds at ease while we took a much needed break. We came home to find our pack happy and relaxed. Thank you Angela!”
“Jaclyn was wonderful- our intro meeting was great, she clearly loves dogs and when she came out for her first drop in she spent lots of time playing with my new puppy and was incredibly attentive. She’s been a great communicator and very responsive. She sent several photos and updates durning her visit as well. I would highly recommend her!”
“My cat, Raven, is a senior girl who is slowing down. Wendy took great care of her which gave me peace of mind while I was out of town. Raven greeted me with a purr when I got home. Thanks for taking such good care of Raven! 😻”
“We are so pleased to add Karissa to our dog sitting team! She truly loves dogs and was wonderful with our shy/reactive dog. She sent photos and notes that helped give us peace of mind while gone. Karissa is dependable and does a great job!”

Cannot recommend Samantha enough! For 1st time Rover users, we are SO appreciative of the care and loving she gave our kiddos! Book Sam if you want someone who is detail orientated, a quick communicator, reliable and willing to problem solve. Her thorough written check-ins and plenty of daily photos helped us feel at ease with leaving our pets at home knowing they had someone to care for and play with them! We hope to use Sam in the future 🤩
Lexus was absolutely fantastic with our cats! She kept our social cat entertained during her visits and engaged as much as possible with our shy cat too. She sent us lots of photos, so we felt better knowing our cats were happy while we were away! It’s great coming back to full food bowls, clean water bowls and clean litter boxes after a weekend away. We’ll definitely rebook next time we go out of town. Thank you, Lexus!!!
Brittany cared for my four cats while I was out of town for work, even last minute some days, and was SO accommodating! She not only took care of my boys, she also checked on my house while I was gone too. They fell in love with her and would leave her toys at the door everytime she came over ❤️ I would recommend Brittany for anyone needing their fur babies taken care of! She learned all their personalities, shared stories and pictures with me, and made me feel comfortable being away. 10/10!!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Chapel Hill on Rover is $15.54 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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.

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.
