“Misty is absolutely fantastic. Anyone in the Semora, Milton, Roxboro area we highly recommend her for a pet sitter. She takes great care of our cat, and is trustworthy without question.”
About: I’ve cared for every kind of pet since I was 10, big or small, energetic or calm. I understand not every pet will adapt to me right away, and I’m patient with that so they feel safe and comfortable at their own pace. I have the perfect schedule with school to take care of some pets anyday Monday through Thursday between the hours of 11:30-4:40. Daily or weekly! I provide a safe, calm, and trustworthy environment for every pet, energetic or lazy, big or small. Whether in my home or yours, I focus on their unique needs with careful supervision, secure spaces, gentle handling, enrichment, and consistent routines so they feel comfortable, happy, and well-cared for at all times. Trust is very important to me.
About: I've had animals ever since I can remember. Big, small, smaller, just about anything you can think of I've had. I take pride in making sure all animals around me are happy and cared for. I can care for dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, and any small animal from hamsters to bunnies. I'm currently searching for a part-time job, so I will have plenty of time to take care of your animals. I love to be around animals, more than people. So, I've got time to take long walks and excellent care of all your animals. I always take my pups out on a leash. They are trained to go into their crates when we leave. All of my animals get plenty of exercise, lots of toys, and all my love. I can assure you I'll take extra special care of your animals, just like I do mine.
“Ken was amazing at taking care of the dogs! He came on time, stayed for a while, kept great notes and made sure to include pictures (which I love). I never had to worry about whether or not the dogs needed to go outside, get some love and affection, or needed to drink some water. Ken made sure everything was documented so I knew how my fur babies were doing while I wasn't there. Highly recommend and will be using his services again for sure soon!”
“Phoenix was so well taken care of with David. He sent pics, kept us up to date. Very friendly, Phoenix took to him readily. Knowledgeable about dogs per his conversation. Sent a great pic of her outside with her favorite ball. Will definitely use David's services again. ”

“Raeann was great! She took great care of my two cats while I was away for a long weekend. Sent pics and updates, gave one of my boys his injectable medication each day, and gave them some extra loving on top of it too! Even vacuumed before I got home! It was wonderful peace of mind knowing they were well taken care of and would definitely book again!”
About: I have always been surrounded by dog, whether it was my own or taking care of others. I believe that dogs deserve as much love as they give us. I am a homebody, but that means that I'll be more available to hang out with your dog for walks or trips to the park. I live in a townhouse apartment, which means that I have experience with walking dogs around non-fenced areas. This also means I will be observant if you do have a fenced area.
“Lindsay is amazing. She took great care of my 7 week tiny puppy. She even suggested to break up visits since she was so small. My Lexi had bad separation anxiety. She would get sick. She suggested a stuffie pup and it worked great! She even washed some dishes! She instantly made me feel comfortable leaving my little Lexi ❤️”
About: Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness will always be my priority. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, feeding, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and care while you’re away. I know every dog and cat has their own personality and routine, and I’ll take the time to get to know what makes your pet happiest and most comfortable. I worked as a veterinary assistant for around two years, where I gained hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve also pet sat for family and friends over the years, so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets while you’re away. My veterinary experience gave me the skills to care for animals safely while being attentive to their individual needs, personalities, and comfort levels. I’m currently a graduate student at UNC and would love to spend some of my time outside of school caring for your pets. I’m responsible, dependable, and excited to give your pet the same love and attention I would want for my own! I’m currently a graduate student, so I’m looking to provide pet care around my school schedule, primarily weekends/long weekends. My schedule can vary throughout the week, but I’m happy to coordinate with you to find times that work for both of us! I will care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, where they can stay in a familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I’ll follow any instructions you provide for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, or other needs. With my previous experience as a veterinary assistant, I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats and will always prioritize their safety and well-being.
About: I’ve taken care of all types of dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, spiders, snakes and even children lol for family and friends since I was 13! I’m currently working full-time Monday thru Friday onsite but can be very flexible! I am available in the mornings until 9:00am and available after 3:30pm. I have an open schedule on weekends! We stay in a gated apartment complex and have multiple neighborhoods and a dog park around for a variety of walking paths and adventures! We have a bengal cat who loves outside so we walk her almost every day, she is great with the dogs and children. I am all about making sure the pet owner is comfortable with their pet staying with us. I stay on the schedule and rules provided by the pet owner. I am punctual and always aware of my surroundings.
About: I have gotten most of my experience from working at Woodsdale animal hospital and being a pet groomer.{PRICES ARE ALWAYS NEGOTIABLE} I serve the Rougemont, Roxboro, Butner, Hillsborough, Apex, Cary Durham, Raleigh, Nelson, Morrisville, Chapel Hill area and have taken care of many dogs over the years (Pyrenees, Cane Corso, Pitbull, Dalmatians, German shepherd, Siberian Husky and more) and gotten most of my experience from working at Woodsdale vet hospital! I was also a dog groomer at PetSmart and PetSense! I have grooming experience, training experience and most of all a deep love for animals! I offer house cleaning services, doggy deshedding baths, nail grind, and training. I also take Polaroid or mini photos for my returning customers! (refer to photos) I own a dog stroller for disabled doggies and or elderly dogs also. I am also able to carry elderly dogs safely up and down stairs. Petsitting fits into my schedule perfectly due to me doing online school (only have morning classes) which means I have lots of free time to have fun with your doggies. I own three beautiful dogs (pitbull and two chihuahuas) and have a true passion for caring for dogs, especially large dogs (my soft spot) I also offer house cleaning, pet grooming services and plant care for pet parents. How I care for dogs in the pet parent’s home is by starting their day off with a walk, food and then playtime. I give three walks a day, and if allowed I’ll take your dog to a dog park or a trail. Sometimes I do behavior training if asked by the pet parent and or give baths (use deshedding shampoo) at the end of the day if asked. I am able to grind nails and deshed the coat also (have pet grooming experience) so I make sure your fur baby is in tip top shape and happy! As for elderly dogs or dogs with special needs, I am able to carry dogs up and down stairs if needed, I also own a large dog stroller (which is always cleaned and sanitized after every use) for elderly dogs, dogs that pull and dogs with special needs/injuries. They too deserve a nice walk!

Teresa did a wonderful job taking care of our menagerie for a week while we were gone. We have 1 dog, 3 cats, chickens, a bunny and fish tanks, which can be a lot for some pet sitters, but Teresa did a great job. Will continue to use her for future trips :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Five Forks is $26 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $41 per visit. 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 November 2026, there are 1,347 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Five Forks. 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Five Forks. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
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.
