“Anne did such a wonderful job with our 3 cats! She sent tons of photos each visit and gave notes. She also watered our new grass and brought in our mail. This was our first experience with Rover and were put right to ease when she first visited, as she took extensive notes on instructions and was so sweet with the cats. I can’t recommend her enough!”

“My cat felt safe interacting and snuggling up to John within minutes of first meeting him, and I think it’s because of John’s calm, intentional, gentle presence and demeanor. I couldn’t believe this is his first time cat-sitting because he was so good with my cat. He was quick to respond and was communicative throughout the visits, and asked many questions to get to know my cat’s routines and preferences. John was so polite and easygoing. He went above and beyond caring for my cat for the weekend, and this was a last minute scheduling given last minute plans. So grateful for John.”

About: I've been a pet parent since my teens, from Dixies to Bernese! Would love to bring your dog with me on my walks/runs. I have a large fenced in yard for roaming and single floor home. I am available for boarding for weekends or full week. I do work 4-10s M-Th so would be better suited for older dogs if during the week. I am home Fri -sun for more attention on weekends. I have no kids and single floor home if those are restrictions for your pet. There is room inside for a crate if needed. The large back yard is fully fenced in and great for fetch. I do walk/run regularly and would love for your pet to join me if they are up to it.

“Hannah was amazing. Super fast responses! She gave us great peace of mind while we were gone for so long. She was always on time, and always sent us pictures of the things we asked her to do (food, water, two litter areas). Our cats are super skittish but she managed to snap a quick pic of one and sent that as well. Our kitties were very well taken care of and we can’t thank Hannah enough.”

“Kilie was awesome! She showed up on time for every feeding, gave our kitties some love and attention and made sure they were well taken care of. We’ve never left our cats in the care of anyone other than family so we were a little nervous about how it would go, but Kilie was so good that we now feel free to travel as long as we can book her.”

“Meghanne did such an amazing job with Z.D. on her drop-in visit! I was very anxious as this was a first experience for me and my dog is definitely on the more energetic side, but after a very optimistic meet and greet, the drop-in itself went very well. Z clearly had a wonderful mid-day break and was very well taken care of. I will definitely be booking again!”

About: I would not be where I am today without the incredible impact animals have made on my life all throughout my years of living. I am a dedicated animal lover and give immense care and love to my furry friends. I have 3 furry friends of my own! I have a Bernedoodle named Samoa and she is the sweetest girl and loves everyone ☺️ I have 2 cats named Ollie and Maisie, they are bestfriends! Maisie is my fierce calico and Ollie is my handsome tuxedo boy. There has never been a time in my life where I did not own or care for animals. I look at them as my own children and would do absolutely anything necessary to make sure they go through life happy 🫶🏼 Since I am currently unemployed, I have a lot of open time to come and care for your pets! I am very flexible and will work around what I can to accommodate my clients. I care for my pets and other people’s pets in the best way possibly. I will provide lots of love with pets, scratches, toy playing, running, and everything else in between. Whatever your furry friend is okay with, I’m okay with too!

About: I've always loved working with animals, and my experience as an ASPCA intern has given me valuable hands-on experience caring for pets. I'm studying biology on the pre-vet track because my goal is to become a veterinarian, so I'm always eager to learn more about animal health and behavior. I have experience caring for cats that require daily medication and special diets, thanks to my own cat's kidney disease. I also enjoy training dogs using positive reinforcement and have taught my roommate's dog basic commands like "sit." I'm patient, reliable, and committed to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away. As a pre-vet biology student, pet care is an important part of my daily routine and aligns with my career goals. Every day, I make sure my cat has fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and plenty of attention and playtime. Since she has kidney disease, I also administer her medication and closely monitor her eating habits, hydration, and overall health. Throughout the week, I keep up with grooming, cleaning her living space, and ensuring she stays comfortable and happy. Caring for my cat, along with my experience as an ASPCA intern, has strengthened my passion for animal care and taught me responsibility, consistency, and the importance of recognizing changes in an animal's health. I have no furry friends at the moment and I happen to live by a spacious park and can give them all the love needed. And I am close to a community clinic as well .

About: What sets me apart is the personalized care and attention I give every pet. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and individual needs so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. I provide regular updates with photos and messages, so you'll always know how your pet is doing. Whether your pet loves long walks, interactive play, or simply relaxing with a companion, I'll make sure they receive the care, exercise, and affection they deserve. My goal is to make every pet feel at home and give owners complete peace of mind. I’m currently working a part time job so I will have plenty of time to play and give them plenty of love while I’m there. When caring for pets in a client's home, I work to keep their routine as consistent as possible to reduce stress. I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box or waste cleanup, medication if needed, and lots of attention. I also respect my client's home by keeping it clean and secure, providing updates and photos, and communicating promptly about how their pet is doing.

Jennifer did a great job with Jozie, who can be a little challenging at times. I could tell from the moment I met Jennifer that she was an animal lover and felt confident she would be a good fit. She was dependable and responsible. I would definitely recommend her.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Fayetteville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Fayetteville on Rover is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $33 per visit. 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 585 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Fayetteville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 .

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 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 Meet & Greet .

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.

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

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 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.
