About: I am a self-professed animal lover and my care for animals started with our family dog, Kip, when I was just 8 years old. Since then I have cared for and walked neighbors, friends, family and colleagues pets. I love being outside and will ensure your pets are well looked after, walked and treated as one of the family. My schedule is currently very flexible so if you need care last minute please do get in contact. I have my own transport so can make my way to you swiftly. I typically work most weekdays and weekends if scheduled in advance (if appropriate). Simply, I will do what ever is necessary to make sure your pets is happy and well looked after. Whilst I do not offer overnight home boarding (I have two elderly hounds), should they ever need to come to my home I have a fenced in back yard. I am happy to abide by crate training if required and always have toys, a bed and training treats on hand, just in case. I ALWAYS bring water on my walks and plan my days to ensure we are not walking in the heat of the day. I am happy to walk early in the morning and later at night. I have used cool coats before so I am also happy to add this to my routine. I never try and rush a pet. Whether it is a nervous cat or young pup, I take my time, not jumping straight in. I try not to let them off the leash immediately so we can build trust and I do not rush them to be my friend.
“Sage was wonderful with our pets. We booked her to house sit and stay with our two dogs and two cats. She was very responsive while we were away and kept us up to date on our pets and how they were doing. We definitely recommend her and will use her again.”
“I was very pleased with her as a sitter. She came over and got to know my dog and showed up on time the first day. She sent me pics and kept me up to date throughout my trip. My dog was comfortable with her. I would let her watch my puppy again.”

“Amanda was phenomenal! Our little girl is a rescue 2 1/2 years ago and has severe anxiety with any change. She instantly bonded with Amanda at the meet and greet. We had to travel out of state and I never once worried about our girl and to be able to enjoy my son’s army graduation without worrying about our girl was beyond worth its weight in gold! Amanda is extremely responsible, attentive, and compassionate. Chloë Elizabeth was well cared for and very happy when we returned! The same goes for our home! She sent pictures multiple times every single day along with updates. Will definitely be using her again!”
“Annaliese, Did an amazing job. She was extremely flexible and accommodating with the schedule changes. She kept Ava on her normal routine, and made the entire process stress-free. Ava was well cared for, and it was clear she received lots of attention and consistency. She was also very respectful of my apartment, which gave me added peace of mind while I was away. Thank you for being so dependable, thoughtful, and helpful—I truly appreciated it! Annaliese. I will definitely us Anneliese again. ☺️”

About: I have been taking care of dogs ever since I was 14 and I’ve loved it ever since! I can’t wait to be your fur babies new trustworthy companion! I’m currently a student and working part time so I’ll make as much free time as needed for your fur babies but please feel free to reach out for my weekly availability! I live in an apartment with my 2 year old dog she’s very shy but friendly and we have a fenced dog park and we live right next to the Mallard Creek greenway which is perfect for going on nature walks!
About: I have begged for and cared for animals ever since I was a child. Always the sensitive soul, I tend to be more comfortable with animals and they seem to be quickly comfortable with me. The bigger the better so it seems! As a yoga instructor and former runner, I crave moving around outside. During the week I have plenty of time to get your buds out for potty breaks & attention, the morning being the extended time for play. While Monday & Tuesday are completely full, Friday through Sunday are completely open. Weekends are when if you need me to house sit, that is an option. Obviously, this is guided by any instructions you give. You know your pet and any little eccentricities they may have. I also go by how they are acting after you have been away for a few hours and their experience with absent family members. In bad weather, I'm great with animals that frighten easily. Even if they do not wish to be touched, I calm my tone and talk more so they know they're not alone. Eye contact if that's something they are comfortable with. Ugh, I sound wacky, but it really is vibe check. Be aware, I have a fragrance allergy which would need to be addressed before overnight care.
About: I’ve taken care of majority of species for years. I have 2 dogs and 3 cats at home, so i definitely am comfortable with them. I work either daily from 12-2:30 then 5:30-8:30 at one job or i work 7ish-3:30ish ( schedule varies) I have downtime the rest of the day. My animals get fed daily before work and 5pm daily. My dogs are walked 3-4 times a day and fed twice. We let them out just not in the cats room. Cats free roam other than the kitten when we are not home. They are fed twice a day. i clean out the litter box every other day.
“Reggi is great! As soon as I met her I felt comfortable leaving Mickey with her. She came highly recommended by a friend, Ashley. She made sure to keep in contact before the weekend and also during the weekend with texts, updates and pictures. In the pictures he looked really relaxed and content. I will definitely book her again!”

“Johnathon did a great job watching Sophie over the weekend! She is on a schedule with her feeding/supplements to keep her stable, and he did his best to stick to that and make any adjustments as needed. I appreciate his professionalism and consideration with everything going on with her, and I appreciate the communication of noticing when she wasn’t eating enough, etc. I was definitely less anxious leaving her this time. Thank you again!!”
About: As a dog mom myself, I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pet. 🐾 I have years of experience caring for my own dog and have also house sat and cared for friends’ pets while they were away. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, and following your pet’s normal routine. Most importantly, I’ll make sure your pup feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care! ❤️ I currently work a full-time 9–5 schedule, but I have flexibility throughout the day for pet care! I’m available for early morning visits, lunchtime check ins or walks, and evenings after work. I’m also happy to coordinate with pet parents to find a schedule that works best for their pet’s routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space and pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own. Safety is always a priority, so I follow all care instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, and do my best to maintain your pet’s normal routine while you’re away. At this time, I’m happy to provide pet sitting and care in your home, but I’m not currently able to host pets in my own home. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for!

The average cost of House Sitting in China Grove is $83 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $56 and $100 per night.

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 October 2026, there are 2,165 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across China Grove. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred China Grove walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in China Grove maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 China Grove 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!
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
