About: I worked in an animal daycare and also volunteer at animal shelters. I know how to clean and take care of all sorts and sizes of animals. I also know how to care and love them. I currently work a part-time job with a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time for pet care throughout the week. With a couple days’ notice, I can usually adjust my schedule to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding times, and overnight care. I am happy to work with each pet’s normal routine! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions provided by owners and make sure pets are supervised, secure, and comfortable at all times. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, so I am patient and allow them time to become comfortable with me. I will give your pets plenty of attention, love, and care while keeping you updated during your time away.
“Tess is wonderful! She communicates well, is on time, and most importantly….George loves her. When she came for our meet and greet, he started to lean on her right away💕”
About: I’ve taken care of pets of all kinds since I was six. My family has had many different breeds of cats and dogs, and I have had no trouble with any of them. I’ve taken care of pets for neighbors as well. I am comfortable with taking care of dogs or cats of any size, age, and personality. I’ve never had trouble bonding with any pet, and I don’t expect that to change! I’m currently a college student home for summer with no work, so I am available any hour during any day of the week. Just let me know! I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. For cats, I keep their routine as normal as possible by feeding them on schedule, refreshing their water, cleaning the litter box, and giving them attention based on their personality. Some cats want playtime and pets, while others need more space, so I always let them warm up at their own pace. For dogs, I focus on keeping them active and happy through walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention based on their energy level. I know every pet is different, so I adjust to what they are used to and make sure they feel relaxed and cared for. I also keep the home clean and secure, and I’m happy to send updates and photos so owners know their pets are doing well.
About: I grew up with pet dogs. I've since become a "cat lady" but continue to love dogs. Out on neighborhood walks I have to stop and pet every dog and cat I meet! There's nothing like a bright dog face and and a wagging tail or a cat purring and rubbing against my legs! I'm recently retired and have lots of time to spend taking care of your pets. I'm available weekdays and weekends, daytime and evenings, and holidays. I'm flexible and open to hearing about your pet sitting scheduling needs. I grew up with dogs, but now I'm a cat lady who loves and pampers my little boy, Mr. Kitty. I prepare special food for him, give him lots of attention, and take him for long walks in his cat stroller. I'm an energetic and responsible recently retired hospice nurse. I'll pamper your pets and give them the greatest care. I'll also treat your space with respect and maintain a clean environment in your home.
“Marilyn did a great job communicating ahead of time and during her visits. She sent lots of pictures of our cats, their food being filled, and their water running. This gave us peace of mind while we were away! I’d definitely recommend her for anyone’s fur babies!”
About: I have genuine love for pets. I’ve taken care of dogs all sizes since I started dog sitting for friends and family. I’m patient, attentive, and make sure every pet feels safe and happy while you're away. I provide plenty of playtime and affection, and communicate regularly with owners to keep them updated. Your pets will be in caring hands! I’m available to take care of your pet mostly outside of my class times. On Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, I can help before 8 am, between 10 am and 2 pm, and after 5 pm. On Tuesday and Thursday, since I only have one morning class, I’m free for the rest of the day to give your pet attention, feed them, and make sure they get exercise and care. I’m an organized person and like to be on schedule, making sure I know my timing for the day ahead by planning for the day the night before. I care for pets by creating a safe and comfortable environment. I check keep the space clean and follow all care instructions closely. I communicate openly with pet owners and give pets plenty of gentle attention to make them feel secure and loved.
“Lucy did such a wonderful job caring for our cat, Otis, while we were away for a week. The visits were as planned and the cutest photos were shared with us each day. We can not wait to use again!”
About: I have years of experience dogsitting and taking care of animals in general. I am absolutely willing to take care of different animals as well. I'm not afraid to handle multiple dogs, as I used to live in a house with 7 of them. I was part of their care as well. I currently work from 7:30am-2:30pm Monday-Friday. I am available every day of the week. I can feed, walk, and kennel animals before I leave for work. After work, I can be available to walk or sit. I am not able to care for pets in my home, but I am availble to take care of them however necessary in the client's home.
About: I’ve been able to dog sit since I was a freshman in high school! Friends have been able to rely on me to take care of their fur babies! I’m working part time at night and I’m taking a small break from school this semester, so I have free mornings during the week! I care for my pets at home by keeping an eye on them and not letting them get into anything they’re not supposed to. I give them plenty of playtime inside and outside, and take them for walks!
About: I’ve owned many animals myself and taken care of them since before I can remember. Friends, family, and friends of family have relied on me to give their animals the love and attention they deserve. I not only fulfilled their basic needs but also gave them loving like they were my own. I am not squeamish and don’t mind cleaning up after your pet should it have an accident because those things happen. I try to be very understanding when it comes to pets’ personalities and preferences because just like people they are all unique! I am doing an online class, that is as busy as I get! I am great at communicating my comings and goings and want you to know your animal is my top priority! If I see my schedule is too full to properly care for your pet, I will let you know. I try not to do anything halfway. I am experienced with crate training, and would never put your animals in an uncomfortable position whether that be on walks or in the home. I care about their safety, sanity, and trust. I always send a message to double check if I’m unsure about a situation I find myself in with your baby.
About: I have always been a dog lover. My husband and I have have dogs for our entire marriage. 22yrs!! They are such a part of the family!!! I'm a stay at home Mom. I'm at the house most all of the day. Always available for potty breaks, walks, and snuggles ❤️ 💕 I am always diligent on making sure leashes and harness are on and secure. All doors and gates are always double checked to make sure they're locked.
“Linda was great! We reached out last minute and on a holiday no less and she was timely, communicative, and very friendly. She went above and beyond and even texted hours later to check in on our fur babies. Would absolutely recommend!”
“Jocelyn is the absolute best and the only one that we trust with our fur babies. She takes time with them, even cleans up behind them before she leaves our house. Our pets love her, and her love for them shows. You will never find anyone more dedicated to taking care of and loving on pets than Jocelyn, not even close! She is quick to respond and sends plenty of pictures so we know our pets are being very well taken care of. I can't recommend her enough; this wasn't our first time with her, and it definitely will not be the last!”
About: I love caring for animals - both my own and for others! I have sat dogs for friends on deployment, taken care of mixed pet households (including cats and dogs), cared for senior and disabled dogs, and have experience caring for a wide range of non-traditional pets as well. I'm currently a stay-at-home dad to a wonderful daughter, and my partner works from home, so I have flexibility in my daily and weekly schedules. I understand that different pets need different care and support. Have a super energetic dog? I love playing fetch and going on long walks. Have a kitty that needs silence and space? I'm happy to provide quiet company and respect their boundaries. I'm attentive, consistent, detail-oriented, and responsive. I take caring for your animals as seriously as my own.
About: I have grown up with all sorts of animals; ranging from cats and dogs to turtles and horses. If you have a pet I most likely have owned it and taken care of it before. Family friends, neighbors and friends of friends have always reached out to me to take care of their healthy and sick pets when going away. I am a recent college grad who is just trying to bring in a little extra cash while I figure out this adult thing on my own. I miss all my animals from back home so I would love to have time to babysit your babies and make them feel like they get to go on vacay too! I have always had pets and I like to make sure that they always have a clean, safe place to be. I will make sure your pet is always cleaned up after and has a fun time so you can come home to a happy pet and a clean house and yard.
“Amanda was amazing. Even took the time to visit for a quick meet and greet prior to the appointment. Very friendly and Loki loved her. Will definitely call again when needed and highly recommend.”
About: Being a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I focus on keeping dogs comfortable, safe, and feeling at home while you’re away. I genuinely love dogs and already take care of one of my own, so I’m used to daily walks, feeding schedules, and giving them attention and consistency. What sets me apart is that I don’t just “watch” dog, I care for them like they’re part of my own household, because I already live that way with my own pet. I run a real estate company, but most of my work is done on my computer so I’m home and available throughout the day. I occasionally step out for short periods, usually about an hour or less, but I’m generally around and able to give pets attention, care, and consistency. I care for my own dog daily, and he’s older so I’m used to giving extra attention and following a care routine. I handle his eye drops and medication, and I’m very attentive to his needs like feeding times and when he wants to go outside. He’s well trained, but more importantly I’m used to being observant and consistent with him. Because of that experience, I’m comfortable adapting to any dog’s routine and following specific instructions to make sure they’re cared for exactly how their owner prefers.
About: I’ve had pets my entire life and currently have a cat, so caring for animals has always been a part of my daily routine. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe and loved. I pay attention to their behavior and needs so I can keep them happy and comfortable. I truly enjoy being around animals and treating them like my own. For the last 3 years I have fostered puppies from Best friends and Paws and Claws on and off! Monday – Friday: Open availability Weekends: Open / depends on dates Flexible with times and short notice bookings Open to mornings, afternoons, evenings, and occasional weekends depending on needs and scheduling availability. I care for pets by sticking closely to their normal routine feeding them on time, going on walks, playing with them, and giving them plenty of attention. I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and not stressed while you’re away. I pay attention to their behavior and needs so I can adjust and make them feel at ease. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, I try to keep things calm and familiar so they feel right at home. I treat every pet like my own and genuinely enjoy making sure they’re happy and well cared for.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fayetteville
Emily was very accommodating to our situation. Wag was unpredictable and will never use them. Emily showed kindness, compassion, and sympathy towards my family and our fur babies! Will continue to utilize her service as she shows what it is to be a great sitter!
Shannon is FABULOUS!!! She sent pictures and detailed messages about each visit. She was very thorough and made friends with my wary kitty and skittish dog very quickly. She is kind and very attentive to detail. I recommend her 10 out of 10 with gold stars.
Laura was the best. I have a dog who has a lot of anxiety territorial issues. And is also very dog aggressive. Laura saw her for the sweetheart she really is and treated her as such. Really reduced my stress my traveling to know I had someone my dog trusted and enjoyed seeing taking care of her. Definitely going to be a repeat customer any time I need to travel.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Fayetteville 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.
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 Fayetteville 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!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Fayetteville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

- 100% 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.
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.
