About: I’m an active working veterinary assistant with 15 years of experience. I’m looking to pet sit in my home small dogs up to 20-25 lbs. I do have kids, cats, and my personal dogs- everyone gets along 😊 my personal dogs are all crate trained and can be kept separate from your baby if needed. The kids loovve helping take care of any furry creature and are well behaved with them. I am able to bring your dog with me where I work should it be needed. I am home all day Saturday, Sunday, and Monday but would willing to look after your furbaby during the week as well. I will only be taking one dog at a time (they will be throughly spoiled while here) I can administer any medications needed and can provide bathing services. I hope to meet you soon! I work full time in a veterinary hospital Tuesday-Friday. I am home all day Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. I care for animals all day, everyday I do have a fenced in yard and my pets are all up to date on vaccines, heartworm, flea, and tick preventions. I can provide specialized care for senior pets or those with medical needs
About: Hello! I love all animals and will be willing to look after your dog and do the best I can to ensure they feel at their best! I graduated from NC State with a Bachelor's degree in Animal Science in 2015. I received my Master's degree in nutrition in 2018. I have completed a few internships at vet clinics and shelters. I welcome all dogs as I am most experienced with horses -so big dogs are not a problem! Animals have always been a passion of mine and I know how to pay special attention to dogs and their needs. Generally I can spot common issues and know how to stay calm in an emergency. What the owner suggests, I will keep in mind at all times. There will be no worries about your fur babies under my care! I do work during the day M-F, and do not work from home. So if this isn’t a problem, I will give your fur baby the upmost care and attention when I return from work during their stay! I am home all day during weekends and most holidays! I work full time M-F. However, despite this, I am so attentive to my fur babies. I have an indoor camera where they can be watched while I am gone. If my work schedule is not a problem, I promise your fur baby will have a blast with me! I take it very serious for fur babies to be tended to and watched. I am very cautious and think of their safety, always. I am very communicative and will notify owners of anything that is an emergency! I ask many questions to make sure your fur baby feels safe and as happy as they can be in my or their home.
“This is the sitter to book! Megan is respectful, took great care of my 2 cats, and kept the house nice and tidy. Great communicator, and goes above and beyond. I really enjoyed the pictures and daily updates. I travel a lot, and will definitely be a repeat customer. Thank you bunches, Megan!”
“Michael took care of my 2 kittens for a week while I was gone. He is a wonderful photographer and sent me adorable pictures and videos each visit. He didn’t only feed them but he also played with them and gave them lots of attention. I can’t say enough good about him. The best!”
“First time using Kelly. Looks like she did what I asked of her. Came home to clean and neat food area and litter cleaned up except for a little which means she cleaned up as I expected. Good communication and patience. Would use again.”
“Terry made me feel very comfortable leaving my pets for a few days. She was very responsive, and shared photos every day. Even my "scaredy cat" came out for her. Thank you Terry!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes for friends and neighbors and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or extra attention, I’ll make sure they stay happy, active, and well cared for while you’re away. I am a pre-med student at NC State that is looking to continue caring for animals and enjoy doing it! I am home for the summer and have a flexible schedule. I’m organized and good at planning ahead, which helps me stay consistent with visits and make sure pets are cared for on time. I ensure they are always fed, hydrated, cared for, and active throughout the experience to ensure the pets remain happy and healthy. I will play with the pet and take them for lots of walks. I will also clean up any and all messes to maintain a clean environment.
“Flora is amazing! This is the second time I have booked her and I cannot recommend her enough! She is prompt, great with the cats, and even checked to make sure all my chickens made it into the coop.”
About: I’ve had dogs in my house my entire life. I absolutely love taking care of them! I’ve also always helped my friends taking care of their dogs and have dog sit many different breeds. I personally have owned beagles, Labradors, and golden retrievers. With my last two dogs I’ve personally been the one taking care of them mostly all the way from 8 weeks old. I absolutely love taking care of dogs and would love taking care of any breeds! I’m currently a student at University of North Carolina Wilmington. I would be available Tuesdays 12-5, Wednesdays 2-5, Thursdays 12-7, Fridays 1-7, and anytime on Saturdays and Sundays. I currently cannot take care of any dogs in my home. I am living in an on campus apartment and we are not allowed to have pets.
About: I have a degree in animal science so I know lots about all sorts of animals, i love all animals with a passion. I’m a dog mom of 3! Currently working Wednesday from 2-5 and Friday 6-12. So the rest of the week I can play and walk your pups 🐶!! I’m super flexible with my schedule. I have three pups of my own and two acres of land for them to run and play, I do prefer to do walks or in home check ins on others animals though! One of my pups gets anxious around others sometimes. But he’s not aggressive.
“Ginger V. did a great job of taking care of my animal family. They were all in perfect health and spirit when I got home. The pictures she sent were very cute and reassuring. I will happily recommend and hire Ginger again.”
“I’ve used several people from Rover and Jordan is one of my favorites! She is punctual and sends great updates when I’m away so I’m reassured that my dogs are happy and in good care.”
About: I grew up with dogs big and small! I’ve handled elderly dogs that needed diapers and help walking, given medication to dogs who dont want them, and taught boundaries and basic commands to a dog who was untrained. Whatever your furry friend needs, I’ve got you covered! I’m currently free almost every single day! Im a home body who was laid off recently so this is my current job! I do not have any other permanent plans during the week and can be free when needed! I prefer to work in the client’s home as that is the pet’s safe space. I can adapt to any life style a pet requires of me. Some prefer 2-3 walks a day. Some cannot walk a lot and need to be helped. I understand every pet is different and with that comes different types of care for the pet.
About: I have been a pet sitter for the last 10 years. I used to do over night stays but now do drop in visits. I am a teacher in Guilford county but live in walnut cove. I’ve had 2 dogs and 6 cats but now have none so looking for some animals to visit! I do have experience in giving medicine to cats. My last cat had severe urinary cystitis. I can’t wait to meet your fur babies! Currently early mornings(6-630am), afternoons(anytime after 430), and weekends. Since I am a teacher, I will have more flexibility starting in June. Weekday afternoons will open up. I do not offer overnight stays but can easily come to you! I can do dog walks, cat/dog feedings, or check ins. I am here to help care for you fur babies!
“Breanna provided EXCELLENT care for my cat! She is really responsive and take pictures and describes in detail her visits! I will be hiring her again. I highly recommend!!”
“Risa will always be my first choice! My cats love her and I know they’re in good hands when she’s in charge! Risa sends text and photo updates, and has an amazing memory for detail.”
About: I have a soft spot for animals because I grew up with lots of them and hope to help strays in the future. I’ve helped my mom my entire life with her dog business so I’m very familiar and comfortable with caring for dogs! I have a very flexible schedule so I’m typically available if needed. I am able to do a few drop ins a day and for long term clients, overnight stays. If your pet needs to be let out in a fenced area or walked I can do that along with feeding and providing fresh water when needed. Additionally, I don’t mind a little enrichment such as playing fetch or a little tug of war. All animals should feel safe and comfortable and I provide that feeling.

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.

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.
