About: I've taken care of dogs of all kinds since I was 13 years old! From chihuahuas and morkies to labs and golden retrievers, I have cared for so many dogs. Because I don't currently own any dogs, I often get called on by my brother to take his two on walks. I currently work part-time in Durham, so my schedule is pretty open. Available most days for overnight stay, if needed. Schedule would allow for any type of services after 3pm most days. I don't currently offer boarding services at my home, but I'd be happy to come to your home and help out in any way you need. I'm even open to taking them in my car to a nearby park if needed.

That includes walking dogs frequently, playing often, maintaining diet and clean drinking water, picking up poos, and cleaning up messes! I am also happy to accommodate on overnight stays pets who may want to sleep in the bed or require night/early morning care.
“Annabelle was just fantastic. Reliable, communicative, trustworthy, and so helpful when an unexpected issue came up. My cat was smiling (if you know you know) in all the photos. We would hire her again in a heartbeat!”

“Lilly was amazing! She pet sit overnight for me for a few days. This was my first time leaving my kitty with someone other than family and she really gave me peace of mind. My elderly cat has gotten very particular with age and she did a great job of following my annoyingly specific instructions. She also gave me updates with pictures daily and let me know how he was doing, how he well he ate and any throw up situations. I will definitely be reaching out to Lilly for sitting again!”
“Ali is simply a lovely human. My dogs took to him immediately. Gus was especially excited to meet his new friend and Ali responded with nothing but patience and understanding. Ali has an energy that is simultaneously enthusiastic and calming. We’re excited to have him back :)”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Fearrington
I’ve worked with some incredible cat sitters and animal lovers across many cities and states, and Mackenzie is the absolute best of them. So unbelievably kind, thoughtful, responsive, and attentive to the smallest details, and above all, she treats our home and our babies as if they were her own. 🤍
We have had to be out of town very often this year and Lynsey has been our go-to cat sitter for nine months and counting. Our cat loves her and she continues to provide top-notch care, thoughtfulness, and love whenever she visits! She is reliable and trustworthy!
Gwen went above and beyond for our two Sphynx cats! She wiped their eyes and behinds, which is normally difficult as a two man job- so I’m very impressed! Our more apprehensive cat warmed up to her immediately and she provided much needed cuddles for him. She even emptied our LitterRobot correctly, which can be a little complicated. I appreciate all of the care, updates and time that she provided for us.
Christy was an outstanding cat sitter from start to finish. Her communication was truly top‑tier. She checked in regularly with updates, photos, and little notes about how my cat was doing. Beyond the great communication, Christy was reliable, attentive, and clearly cared about keeping my cat’s routine steady. I highly recommend Christy to anyone looking for a sitter who is not only trustworthy and caring but also fantastic at keeping you informed every step of the way.

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 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.

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.
