About: I’ve always been a huge animal lover, and I know just how much our pets mean to us. They’re not just animals, they’re family! I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your fur babies while you’re away. I’m a loving, patient, and dependable person who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals of all personalities, sizes, and ages. Whether your pet loves playing, going on walks, getting belly rubs, or just cuddling up and relaxing, I’m happy to give them the love and attention they deserve! I love spending time with animals, so making time for your fur babies is something I genuinely enjoy! I do work during the week, but I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s needs. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I want to make sure your babies get plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away! Your pet’s safety and happiness will always be my top priorities! I understand that trusting someone else with your fur baby is a big deal, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I’ll always follow your pet’s normal routine, respect their boundaries, and make sure they’re comfortable in their environment. Whether I’m caring for them in your home or mine, I’ll treat them like one of my own! I’m also more than happy to send pictures and updates for your peace of mind. ❤️

“We cannot say enough good things…she treated not only our pets, but also our home, as if they were her own. Dare I say…perhaps even better. ? Amongst other things, Brittany is professional, thorough, loving, trustworthy, and extremely communicative. Do not hesitate in asking her to spend time with your pet(s). You will not be sorry, and will likely become like us-a repeat customer.”

“I have an 11 yr old female pittie who gets stressed and sick when her Momma leaves her, so boarding became impossible. Charlotte was an absolute life-saver. She stayed in my home with my May for 4 nights and dedicated days. She was so intuitive and attentive to my baby's needs. By the time I got to my phone to answer questions concerning May's behavior, she had already figured it out by paying close attention to her just as I do! I've never seen her so relaxed and happy as if I never left. I will definitely be calling on Charlotte again.”

About: I have had my own cat since I was 4 years old and I grew up caring and watching over her and she is still by my side to this day. Throughout the years I have taken care of other animals within my family and my friends. I have more knowledge and experience with cats but I would love to watch over dogs more often. I have a job at Starbucks and my schedule fluctuates but I get my schedule three weeks prior and I am willing to work with anyone to be sure I can give their animals the care they need. Currently, I am treating my cat of her hyperthyroidism and early signs of kidney disease. I give her her medicine on a set schedule, a full dosage in the morning and a half-dosage at night. And even if work overlaps with that time I am sure to be flexible so I can get to her in time for her medication.

About: I have taken care of dogs all my life, and I gained a lot of experience from a three year stint when I was younger and had seven at once ! The two I currently have are potty trained by me, and they respond to basic commands like ‘sit’, ‘drop it’, ‘come’, and ‘quiet’. I have also taken care of two senior, as well as groomed a goldendoodle named Moose! I’m very good with dogs, and I love just being around them! I’m currently a college student, but my weekends and afternoons are free. Early early mornings (5:15-7 am) are also free, though my availability at those times would be distance based. I do not have a place at my dorm to entertain dogs, but I have my own car in which there is plenty of space to transfer a dog to a park or even to the vet!

FAQs for House Sitting - Garner

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 104 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Garner. 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 Garner 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 Garner 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 Garner 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.

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 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.

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

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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.
