About: I have cared for multiple different breeds of dogs through out my life. I love animals and treat them as my own. No dog is to big or to wild to be cared for and loved for and duration of time I am comfortable with giving medication when needed, and have experience with basic obedience in animals. All ages are welcome I do work so drop in sitting would only be on the weekends. I can care for pets over night and pet sit cats as much as needed. Over nights are more than welcome at anytime, as well as checking on pets in their own home I have a fenced in yard. I also walk daily when pet sitting and the pets have full access to my home as if they were part of our own family.
“Whitney took amazing care of our two dogs while we were out of town! She treated them like they were her own and gave us so much peace of mind, especially with leaving our puppy for the first time! Will absolutely be rebooking Whitney for future stays!”

“Courtney was phenomenal! She took care of my dogs just like I would. She sent daily updates with pics and videos! I appreciate how kind she was to my sassy old dogs. lol”

About: Hi there! My name is Lex, and I recently relocated from Washington State to Cameron, NC! I’m currently between jobs after working as a career barista for over a decade, which gives me plenty of flexibility to take care of your pets. I have experience caring for dogs of all personalities, from senior pups to energetic dogs who love getting outside and exploring. I’ve also cared for a variety of other animals, including cats, fish, frogs, hamsters, and guinea pigs. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets as if they were their own. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, or overnight house sitting, I’m happy to help make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. When I’m not spending time with my animals, you can usually find me at a concert, a comedy show, or finding something new to read. I’m excited to meet you and your furry family members! I recently moved to the area and my schedule is completely open! I’m flexible and happy to work around you and your pets’ needs. I live in a spacious, open home with a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely enjoy some outdoor time. I have one friendly cat, Po, who is used to being around dogs, and I can keep her separated if needed to make sure everyone is comfortable. I’m currently fully available to stay home and supervise, so your pets will have plenty of attention and company throughout the day. I’m happy to follow their usual routines and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home!

“Emily was amazing! She sent pics daily, even though I didn’t always have a chance to reply. Her updates were great and super adorable. When I came home the house was clean (I think cleaner than I left it. ♥️) Litter boxes were clean too. Excited to have her back to hang with my crew. 😊”

“We have used Tiffany several times for in-house sitting and she’s absolutely amazing. She goes above and beyond. She’s trustworthy and our dog LOVES her. I highly recommend her!”

“Marissa did a fantastic job caring for our dogs. She was timely, always sent pictures, and the dogs were happy and healthy when we got back. Communicate was excellent, I cannot recommend her enough!”


“Tyreika was amazing. She sent the cutest pictures. She should actually be an animal photographer. I knew they were being taken care of as well as if I were here. I would not hesitate to trust Tyreika with my furries again.”

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.

“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.”

“Stasha was great! The pups loved her! She communicated with us throughout the weekend and sent pics of the dogs daily. The house was just as clean as when we left. We would (and plan to) use Stasha in the future!”

About: I have experience caring for dogs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m responsible, patient, and enjoy spending time with animals. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need. I’ll treat your pet like they’re part of my own family! I’m a college student and I play volleyball, so my schedule can vary a little. I have class on Mondays and Wednesdays from 10 AM–12 PM, but I’m pretty flexible outside of that! I’ll always communicate with you about my availability and make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need. I live in an apartment, so I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise through regular walks and trips to the dog park. I’ll always keep them supervised and make sure they’re comfortable and safe while they’re with me.
About: Dogs and cats have always been a part of my life. I have experience with washing, walking, feeding, potty breaks and overnight stays. Currently, my occupation is a dog groomer. Before this job I was a vet assistant at an Animal Hospital. I work part-time right now so I have plenty of time to watch after your pets. I’m available everyday including weekends. I have a flexible schedule. On days I have to work, I feed my dog and cat twice a day. My dog gets let outside before I go to work then when I get home. He gets baths on a regular basis.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and caged or exotic pets since I was in elementary school. Every since I have lived on my own I have had pets. I have fostered/rescued dogs and cats in the past. I'm currently a pre-vet student because I want to chase my dream of being a veterinarian. I'm currently a full-time student, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pets! My schedule changes every semester, but I have availability before and after class. I'm available for boarding weekdays and weekends. I have a fenced-in yard and two friendly pugs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I have an extra bedroom that I made the pet room with dog crates.
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.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Bragg
Samantha ~ Where to start! First she took on our weekend sitter job last minute after another sitter cancelled. Sam has great knowledge of caring for pets and knew exactly how to maneuver around our 3 Pups. She left our home exactly how she found it and even did extra like washing the sheets which not expected. She is a 5 ⭐️ sitter and we will use her again!

Paige was a fantastic dogsitter!! She was great with all of my pets, 2 dogs and 3 cats. She took the time to brush out my German Shepard/Huskey mix while I was away and sent me daily photos of her visits while I was away. She even took the time to play with my pet spider out in the carport (in my defense, I didn't know I had a pet spider). Seriously though, Paige is great and I will definitely book her again the next time I have to go out of town. You should check her out, she is great people.

Jessica has made my first time having a dog sitter a truly remarkable experience! She checked in with me often and sent multiple photos and updates, and gave me peace of mind that my doggies were well taken care of. I came back to safe, happy dogs and I'm sure they had a fun time with her! She was also very respectful to my home, professional, and communicated well. Thank you Jessica

Jackson was great! We have four dogs that are a handful with two pages of instructions and we came back to happy dogs and a clean house - which, when you typically catch late flights home, being able to go to bed as soon as you get home instead of cleaning up is the best ever.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Fort Bragg is $34 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $24 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 545 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fort Bragg. 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 Fort Bragg 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 Fort Bragg 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 Fort Bragg 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.
