About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with many different breeds including Australian shepherd, golden retriever, basset hound, golden doodle, etc. I’ve cared for a variety of breeds, including Dachshunds, Labs, English Bulldogs, and Huskies, and have experience caring for multiple dogs at the same time. I’m familiar with different temperaments, energy levels, and care needs, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. Whether your pup loves playtime, walks, cuddles, or extra patience and attention, I’m happy to provide the care they deserve. I currently work part-time at Odell’s, which gives me the flexibility to care for pets throughout the week. I have time to dedicate to walks, check-ins, feeding schedules, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. I understand how important it is to have someone dependable caring for your pets, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. No matter what, I do my best to keep them on their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, exercise, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention. I understand that every pet is different, so I adapt to their personality and needs, whether they are energetic and playful or prefer a calmer environment. I also make sure owners receive updates and photos so they can feel confident their pet is happy and well cared for while they’re away. Safety is always a top priority, and I treat every pet as if they were my own.

About: I am a puppy mom of two loveable border collie crosses and one German Shepherd! We have a large front yard for the dogs to run as well as a farm to explore. My husband and I have had dogs all our life, but we got our first together in 2016 and added the second addition September 2017. Our third pup was added in 2025. On the weekends we take hiking trips and would love to have your pup join us on our adventures. I have my own business and work from home, so they would have as many breaks as needed. Your pup would be in great hands with us. I work from home, with my own business, so I have a lot of flexibility in caring for your pet! Outside time and rest breaks are able to fit right into my schedule. In our primary residence we have 3 dogs, all of which are crate trained. For my office space though I am able to have it dog free should your pet need that.

Danielle did a wonderful job of taking care of our little Jazmine whom we have only left one time before. She was prompt, fed her well and took her on walk abouts, shared pictures and comments about how Jazz was doing, stayed extra time with her because Jazz was lonely and in general just did a great job. Thank you, Danielle! Be sure to book her when you need pet care!

About: I have been blessed to grow up with cats and dogs my whole life. I love taking care of animals. I have a dog and 3 cats of my own. Animals bring joy and it’s important to find care that you can trust and will do what you ask because they are your animals. I’m happy to care for your pets the way you request. I believe animals are a part of the family and deserve to be treated with that kind of love, care, and respect. I’m currently working part time as a nurse while I care for my son and my own fur babies. I look forward to meeting more animals and sharing the love. I have a privacy fenced in back yard where our dog stays. I have 2 outdoor cats (used to my dog who come and go as they please) and 1 indoor cat. If you choose to board your dog with mine we would have a meet and greet beforehand to make sure it’s a great fit for your fur baby and mine

About: Hi! I’m Nia, a lifelong dog lover based in the 27030 area. I’ve had dogs my entire life and currently have two of my own: Indi, my 2.5-year-old Chihuahua/Italian Greyhound mix, and Bear, my 6-month-old Poodle. Because I travel myself, I truly understand how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else. That’s why I focus on communication, safety, and making sure both you and your dog feel completely comfortable. I’m experienced with puppies, small breeds, high-energy dogs, and slower senior dogs. Whether your pup prefers a relaxed stroll, a jog to burn off energy, or a day at the park, I’m happy to match their pace and personality. I can work on keeping up with basic commands and training but I am not certified in any dog training. If you’re interested, I can also safely introduce your dog to Indi and Bear for socialization, only with your permission and after making sure it’s a good fit. Safety is always my priority. I carefully check harnesses and leashes, follow all feeding and water instructions, and stick closely to your dog’s normal routine. I treat every dog like they’re my own. I have very open availability, including weekdays, weekends, holidays, and last-minute bookings and I’d love to meet you and your pup! 🐶🐾 Pet care is already a big part of my daily life since I have two dogs of my own, Indi and Bear. I plan my days around walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and outdoor time, so adding additional pets into my routine feels natural and easy. I have open availability, including weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and I’m flexible with mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Because I’m used to a consistent routine, I’m dependable and organized when it comes to providing reliable care. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, and preferred walking routes. I double-check harnesses, collars, and leashes before walks and monitor pets closely at all times. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, clean, and structured environment with plenty of supervised playtime and rest. Any introductions to my dogs are done slowly and only with owner permission. I pay close attention to body language and energy levels to ensure every pet feels safe and secure. However, most of the time I will provide sitting in clients home and dog walking outside.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. My parents always said you want it, you take care of it. My love for animals started from a young age with my first kitty Indie, and my dog Coco. I’ve had multiple animals over the years ranging in size and age. I have house sit for Family and friends and love the fuzzy creatures company! I’m currently enrolled in Community college, during the day and work part-time at night. The weekends Would be the best but I can still house sit on the weekdays depending on the needs of the pet and owner! Our two doggies Bear and Blue spend most of their time inside, and in our big backyard playing with the ball. I am capable of ensuring the animals are played with, fed, and taken out! With my dogs I usually feed them separately incase if food aggression, but I can follow any rules that pet owners need for their furry friends.

I currently have open availability for whatever need may arise or for anything you may need I would care for your babies as I would for mine with all the love and attention they could possibly want.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Dobson

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Dobson on Rover is $18.54 per visit (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of June 2026, there are 320 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Dobson. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Dobson 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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

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

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.

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.
