“Patricia watch our two dogs Dora and Spark for over a week. This was the first time we had Patricia as our house/dog sitter and we will definitely request her services again. Patricia sent us pictures and kept us updated about the dogs. She promptly answered any of my emails and contacted us if she had any questions. Patricia also watered plants, feed the fish, and picked up the mail. The house was in perfect condition when we returned. I highly recommend Patricia.”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and a proud dog mom myself, so I know just how much our pets mean to us. I have dogs of my own and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and little quirks. Whether your fur baby needs an overnight sitter, walks, playtime, meals, or simply someone to keep them company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets like family and keep you updated so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I have two sweet doggies named Leo & Sparky who are 7 and 8 years old! I am a stay at home mom, so I’m very used to having a busy routine centered around caring for others. I also have dogs of my own, and taking care of animals fits naturally into my everyday life. I’m comfortable with routines, schedules, feeding times, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of love and attention. Im a mom and I have dogs of my own, so I’m pretty used to taking care of everyone and keeping up with a routine 😂. When I’m watching someone else’s pets, I really just treat them like they’re my own. I’ll follow whatever routine they’re used to, make sure they’re fed and let out, give them plenty of attention and playtime, and of course lots of cuddles if they’re into that. I’ll also respect your home and leave things the way I found them. I know I’d be nervous leaving my own pets with someone, so I want you to feel comfortable knowing they’re being loved and taken care of while you’re gone. 🐾❤️

“Alphine took such incredible care of our dog, Luna, and our cat, Dullahan! She was clearly comfortable with larger dogs and even went above and beyond to walk Luna despite our complicated requests around her leash reactivity. It was easy to communicate with Alphine throughout our trip and we felt confident our pets were in good hands because of it. Alphine also took incredible care of our home. We can’t recommend her enough!!”

About: Hey hey! I love all animals but I'm partial to dogs. I have 2 of my own, both chihuahuas. They're 6 and 7 years old. I've had pets all my life. Large and small. I have quite a bit of experience in training and I love working on puppy manners. I have a soft spot for small dogs and pit bulls! I can't wait to meet your babies! I currently am home full time. I am a hobby bakery. I need to get moving around more so I'm available to meet up to 2-3 times per day every day and weekly if needed. I don't usually care for other people's pets in my home. I prefer to do drop in visits and sit in the home of the owners.

“Lauren is our regular dog walked but she just house/dog-sat for us for the first time (5 days) and, as expected, it went amazingly well. She took good care of my pooch in my apartment. She followed all of the (very tedious/helicopter dogmom) instructions with no hesitation. I would 100% recommend her to anyone.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats, young and old, since 2019. I’m a lifelong animal lover who’s parented guinea pigs and parakeets as well. I pride myself on creating enriching experiences for the animals I sit through play and exercise. I’m a freelancer by trade and work for myself so I have open availability during both weekdays and weekends with limited notice needed to make myself available. I ask that pet owners provide any necessary supplies as I do not have them at home. I do live in a newer apartment complex with a fenced in playground for dogs to run around and lots of sidewalk space for walks.

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for family pets and about 7 years of hands on experience training and caring for my own dogs. I currently have a small Maltese/Yorkie mix and i understand that every dog has their own personality, energy level, and needs. I’m naturally fun and high functioning energy, so I’m comfortable keeping up with active dogs, but I’d say patience is one of my biggest strengths. Working in healthcare has taught me how important patience, attentiveness, and compassion are, and I bring that same approach when caring for animals. I work PRN(as needed) in healthcare, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to have plenty of time to give your pet the attention and care they deserve. My availability can vary week to week, but I’m able to plan my schedule around pet care and make sure your pet gets plenty of playtime, walks, and companionship. I live in a one-bedroom apartment with access to a dog park, a large open field directly in front of my complex, and several nearby walking trails. I make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and given plenty of opportunities for exercise and outdoor time. I’ll also follow any routines, feeding instructions, or special care preferences you provide so your pet feels as comfortable and safe as possible.

About: I’ve always grown up around animals in a big, loving family that treats pets like family members, so caring for them has always come naturally to me. While I’m new to Rover, I do have hands-on experience caring for my own pets as well as helping family friends with dog sitting, check-ins, feeding, walks, playtime, and giving lots of attention. I genuinely love animals and enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I’m patient, kind, dependable, and committed to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether your dog loves energetic walks, belly rubs, or just a calm companion, I’m happy to match their needs and make sure they’re well cared for. I’m currently a college student and I’m the Army Reserves taking one summer class and working part-time, which gives me a pretty flexible schedule this summer. I have plenty of free time for dog sitting, drop-in visits, walks, and giving pets the attention they deserve throughout the day. I’m especially available for families who need reliable help during vacations, work hours, or busy summer schedules. Because of my flexibility, I can often accommodate different routines and make pet care a genuine priority. Your pet’s comfort and safety are extremely important to me. I understand how important trust is when someone else is caring for your furry family member, so I always aim to provide dependable, loving, and attentive care. In your home, I will respect your space, carefully follow all instructions, and keep your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, and behavior to make sure pets feel secure and happy. I believe in gentle care, patience, and creating a positive experience so both pets and owners feel confident and at ease.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I spent time on my grandfather’s farm, helping care for all kinds of animals, which taught me patience and responsibility from a young age. Over the years, I’ve also raised my own dogs from the puppy stage, so I’m very comfortable with training, housebreaking, and giving lots of love and attention to growing pets. Because of this experience, I’m confident caring for pets of all ages and temperaments, including seniors who need a little extra patience and care. I treat every pet like part of my family, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is my priority and a big part of my everyday life. I have a very flexible schedule and am always available to give pets the attention they need. I plan my days around walks, feeding times, and playtime, making sure every pet feels cared for and safe. Whether it’s early morning potty breaks, midday walks, or late night cuddles, I’m available and ready to make pets feel at home. I live in a spacious, pet friendly apartment in a safe and quiet neighborhood, which makes it perfect for dogs to relax and feel at home. I keep my space clean, cozy, and pet proof, and there’s plenty of room for play and rest. When pets stay with me, they get lots of love, attention, and structured potty breaks. I enjoy going on regular walks around my neighborhood, which is calm and great for exercise. I make sure to stick to each pet’s normal routine for meals, bathroom breaks, playtime, and bedtime so they feel comfortable and secure. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their exact instructions to keep pets happy and stress free. I make sure food, water, and medication schedules are followed closely, and I send regular updates and pictures so owners feel at ease while they’re away.

“We recently moved to the Raleigh area and were so lucky to find Caroline & Gavin on Rover and available for the weekend we needed care for our 2 dogs. We needed to be out of town for the weekend for our daughter’s wedding. Caroline & Gavin gave us numerous updates over the weekend and sent pictures. We felt so comfortable having them in our home caring for our dogs. We were able to relax and really enjoy the wedding without worry. One of our dogs is very nervous and unsure around new people. Caroline & Gavin were so calm and patient with her. They left our house in perfect condition too! We will definitely use them again!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Fitch

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 425 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fitch. 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 Fitch 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 Fitch 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.

Tip: 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 Fitch 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.

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

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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.
