“Jazmine is amazing! My dog is not used to being around a lot of people and she was very patient with her and gained her trust. Now Chloe absolutely loves her ❤️”

“Miriam was an attentive overnight sitter for my two senior pups. Provided lots of pictures and videos and kept me up to date on their meals! Will book her again next out of town trip!”

“Excellent! Would highly recommend! Takes great care of our house and our pets. Great communication the entire stay. Did many extras I didn't ask for - like bringing in the mail, and sweeping/mopping the floors before she left. Dogs are happy to see her, and we know our house and pets are in good hands!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole entire life, I’ve always chosen to interact with the pets at someone’s house then them lol ,being around animals is a highlight to my day . I love staying active and walking your fur baby will be an amazing way for you and I. I’m always available in the mornings, some nights I work at my part-time job. But I am off some nights as well! Walking would work great in the mornings, and check ins would work morning or night. Respect is my number one. Being respectful when check-in will be the key to making your animal and you happy! I will keep my promise with always respecting wishes and needs of your animal.
“We had such a positive experience with Samantha. She communicated to us how our dogs were doing while we were away, sent us photos, and overall provided them with love and lots of attention while we were away!”

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a kid, from playful puppies to senior adults needing extra patience. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to feed, walk, and play with their dogs while they're away, and I treat every pet like my own. I'm attentive to routines, quick to notice if something's off, and always up for extra cuddle time. Whether your dog needs a quiet homebody sitter or an energetic playmate, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for the whole time you're gone. I have flexible availability. I'm happy to work around your dog's routine, whether that's daily walks, feeding times, or overnight stays. Pet care is my main focus currently. Since I care for pets in your home rather than mine, I make it a priority to keep your dog's routine as normal as possible, sticking to their regular feeding schedule, walk times, and any specific instructions you leave me. I always double check doors and gates are secure, keep an eye out for anything that could be a hazard, and treat your home with the same respect and care I'd want for my own.
“Awesome woman! She goes above and beyond! She's reliable and will work with you and your animals. She's always looking one how to better your relationship with your pet! Can not say enough wonderful things about her!”

“Brittany makes leaving town less stressful! She was great with both our dogs and we have a feisty one. Also took great care of our Parrot! Definitely recommend booking with her.”

About: Being apart from my furbabies made me start doing dog sitting, and I fell in loved with the experience and how it turned our home more fun and exciting and have decided to keep it going. I’m an Air Force veteran and used to work on call for 14 hour shifts, an hour away from home, 3-4 days a week and the worst was leaving my dog. I always wanted people to send me pictures, texts, updates, etc. but rarely could get them so I GET IT!!! I send tons of pictures, possibly a bit overboard, I know how much it means to people who travel. I do everything that I used to want when I traveled!!! To help ensure that we will be the right fit for you and your dog, please make sure you read this entire profile and understand any additional fees that may apply (listed at end of profile) before contacting me to avoid rate misunderstandings. Rates are inclusive of all care required within our home or at your home, along with plenty of photos/ videos, sent to your preferred method or in a group chat with your loved ones so you can share the moments together even you are away from each other. Please understand that just because your dog is friendly and gets excited when seeing or meeting other dogs, it does not mean they are completely socialized. Some dogs can trigger others by not respecting personal space (both with dogs and humans) therefore I would have to correct that behavior so they know how to act the next time that scenario occurs. I also want to be consistent with the boundaries and structure you as the owner have provided in order to keep your dog balanced in this new environment. Most of all, please be honest about your dog's habits so that I can be prepared to best care for your furbaby. Please understand that the less time I spend correcting them, the more time I can spend giving them love and fun. My goal is to make sure all the doggies have a blast; however, beyond that our priority is their safety and that they are a good fit for our pack. Therefore if it is not a last minute request then I always require a meet-and-greet. Please note I don't usually accept last minute requests for services in my home but I am happy to assist if available, depending on pack compatibility and ability to separate if needed. Dogs that are not from the same household are not left unsupervised together. If I am hosting multiple guests you will be informed. However your dog will need to be crated (or left in the playpen) when left unsupervised since this is our home and it wouldn’t be unexpected for a dog to potentially act differently in a new place than at their own home. Which is also why we request owners being their pup’s own crate (when possible) that they are already used to so they are comfortable being in it when at new place. ***POLICIES & ADDITIONAL FEES*** Holiday fee- Per Rover policy, applies to all nights/ walks/ drop-ins on a booking. This fee is applied to every pet for boarding/ daycare services and to the first pet on Drop-in/ Walks services. Holiday fee is applicable to the entire stay when it overlap the holiday day or the weekend of the following federal and cultural holidays: - Martin Luther King Jr. Day - President's Day - Valentine's Day - Easter - Memorial Day - 4th of July - Labor Day - Halloween - Thanksgiving (Wednesday- Sunday) - Christmas through New Year's (Dec. 23rd- Jan.2nd) Unaltered dogs may be considered on a case-by-case basis and may incur an additional fee if it is determined special accommodations need to be made. Females in heat are never accepted for any boarding or daycare guests. If your dog comes into heat during a stay, you will be required to make immediate alternate pet care arrangements through an emergency contact, your vet office or other. If arrangements are not made in a timely manner, an additional daily fee of $100 will be applied. If your pup is older than 2 and is still a strong leash puller or has behavioral issues that require significant attention, then there is an additional charge of $5/ night. This is because as strong leash puller is more physically demanding and throws off the balance of the rest of the pack. When a dog is unable to walk with the pack it often results in requiring me to do extra walks which takes playtime and TLC away from other dogs. I want to enjoy the walk as much as your dog therefore please also be mindful of the type of collar, harness and leash you use on your pups since it can play a huge role on how your dog walks and whether you can make it heel for you. Please make sure you always provide sitters with the correct tools for your specific dog (and their unique behavior) which means an appropriate collar or harness. I am happy to provide suggestions and give you some options. Additional examples of behavioral issues would be dogs that are chronic whiners or barkers and if your adult dog has a history of indoor marking, please be honest and understand we may need to crate it for up to 4-6 hrs max (usually less). It's not right for any sitter to have to clean up after a grown dog and if you are honest with us about potential issues you are aware of then we can be pro-active in preventing accidents. New clients: Test daycare or overnight stay required for anything longer than one night (especially holidays) so we can make sure it's a good fit. If your dog shows any aggression toward other dogs, this would not be a good fit. Because I do Rover full time, I need to make sure your dog is completely good with all ages of dogs (some dogs just don't like puppy energy.) I can separate them but I prefer not to for longer stays and/or holiday weeks. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable dog walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting throughout the week. As a small business owner, I manage my own schedule, making it easy to accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits with advance notice. I keep my calendar up to date and only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit to, ensuring every pet receives dependable, attentive care. I treat every client’s home with the same care and respect I would my own. During each visit, I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, fresh water, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and plenty of affection. I always ensure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, clean up after pets, and send updates with photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I've been a proud dog parent for the past 6 years to a German Shepherd and a Siberian Husky, two of the most energetic, intelligent, and strong-willed breeds out there! I've trained both of my dogs myself, and I've also helped train other dogs of all sizes, from small breeds to big ones. That experience has taught me patience, consistency, and how to read an animal's body language and needs. I've also cared for cats for 5 years, so whether your cat is playful and social or prefers their quiet space, I know how to give them what they need. I understand the importance of routine, exercise, and plenty of attention to keep pets happy and balanced. Shedding season, zoomies, and stubborn streaks don't faze me one bit! When I care for your pet, I treat them like family, sticking to their routine, reinforcing good habits, and making sure they feel safe and loved while you're away. I work from home full time, so I'm available for drop-in visits and house sitting whenever you need, including last-minute bookings! While I'm caring for your fur babies, I'm happy to keep up with their usual routine, whether that's daily walks, trips to the dog park, or anything else that helps them feel comfortable and at home. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space and your pets with the same respect I'd give my own. I follow your pet's routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication, and I always double-check that doors, gates, and windows are secure so no one slips out. I keep dogs leashed on walks, supervise any time outside, and make sure fresh water is always available. If your pet stays with me, I start with a meet and greet so everyone can get comfortable before the stay. My German Shepherd and Siberian Husky are very friendly with other dogs, and I introduce new pups slowly and supervise all playtime to keep things safe and relaxed. I also have a fully fenced yard where pets can run and play safely. Your pet will get the same attention, structure, and love that my own dogs do. Either way, I'll send regular updates with photos so you can see how your fur babies are doing while you're away. If anything unexpected comes up, I'll contact you right away and follow your emergency and vet instructions.
About: I am active duty military, but I have experience a little over 8 years with dog boarding, dog walking, & dog sitting. As a reliable and experienced pet sitter, your pup will enjoy daily walks, playtime, and plenty of cuddles while you’re away. I currently work Monday-Friday, but I have an extremely flexible schedule. I usually come home around 11-12 for my lunch break and I am free most weekends. I provide a safe, loving environment for every dog I care for. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I take my dog Bo to nearby parks to run and play, and I give every pup plenty of neighborhood walks for exercise and enrichment. I closely supervise all playtime to make sure each dog feels comfortable and loved. I’d be happy to arrange a meet-and-greet with Bo!

I live in a spacious, open home with a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely enjoy some outdoor time.

“THE ABSOLUTE BEST! That is where I start. We had to book him in a pinch and we were able to get a meet and greet in with Khalil and our 3(65# plus) dogs. The meet and greet went great and he showed up on time 3 days later. We received photos every single day. He stayed in our home and was able to keep them entertained while there. The photos we received they were always looking happy. We were gone for 10 days and when we came back it was like we had just left with the house being clean. Khalil stayed in our guest room. We didn't ask him to but he took the sheets off of the bed and put them in the laundry room. The dishes he had used were put in the dishwasher. Main thing was to take care of our dogs and he went above and beyond on that! We will absolutely recommend Khalil to anyone and everyone looking for short and long term stays. Khalil was very responsive. We will be going back to him when we have to be out of town again. Khalil made it so easy to trust that they would be in good hands and taken care of the entire time. I could go on and on. An overall phenomenal experience.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fayetteville
I always get very nervous when I leave my cats, so having Margaret stay with them while I was away for couple days gave me so much peace of mind! She was reliable, attentive, and incredibly sweet and patient with them, followed all my instructions, and kept me updated with great reports. One of my cats takes some time to warm up to people, so seeing him cuddle with her one morning says a lot! 🥹 She also went above and beyond with other little things, like watering the plants and feeding the birds, and was very respectful of my home. I’m so grateful for the care she gave them and would absolutely trust her with my cats again!

I contacted Destiny to house sit out husky Nemy and she replied promptly to set up a meet and greet. She is so personable and made me feel at ease during the meet and greet asking all of the right questions to make sure she knew everything for our fur girls care. She communicated and sent lots of pictures throughout her stay. We will 100% be using her again! :)

They are absolutely phenomenal! Very responsive to messages and coordination of the meet and greet to start. Wonderful in the meet and greet with the dogs(3). We knew leaving them for the weekend would be just fine. We received so many photos of them playing and enjoying the dog vacation. Arriving back to our house it was clean and tidy. The same way we had left it. I’d recommend Rey and Jonathan to everyone.

Nicole was such an amazing pet sitter! We got 3-4 updates a day full of pictures and updates on how our babies were doing! In every picture the dogs were smiling and seemed to love her company! She also kept the house and everything so tidy and even got our mail for us! Definitely recommend booking her!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Fayetteville is $33 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $56 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. 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 511 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fayetteville. 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 Fayetteville 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 Fayetteville 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 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!
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.
