“Tori was an absolute gem to work with! We were 6 hours away in the mountains for our wedding, and having Tori look after our girls gave us peace of mind to focus on us. We loved getting the updates on how our girls were doing, and loved seeing all the photos she captured of our girls while we were away. We will absolutely book with Tori again!”
“I’m so grateful for Sarah! She took such great care of my very shy cat, and coaxed him to open up to her. I had some out-there instructions based on my trip and pet car situation, but she handled everything perfectly. Very communicative and so sweet!”
“Rodrigo did fantastic with the pets! He sent photos of all the animals and showed that all the needed chores for their well being were taken care of. He communicated effectively leading up to the visit. The cats were happy and taken care of and everything was in order when I returned home. Highly recommend!”
“We have a needy Shar pei. Very uncomfortable with people she doesn’t know. We’ve never had a sitter or walker because of that. Jordan is patient and she gets good vibes from him. We went away over night and she did fine! We are thankful for Jordan’s patience with her.”
“Hayden took great care of my pup while I was away. He seemed to really enjoy his time with her! She followed all care instructions and provided plenty of updates and photos. I would book Hayden again and recommend her to anyone looking for pet care.”
“This was my first time booking with Rover and I’m very happy with how it turned out all thanks to Emily! She took lots of photos, let me know how the time went with Birdie and I will definitely be reaching out to Emily for future visits.”
“Tibbs LOVED his time with Jordan. I hired her for the first time through Rover and couldn't be happier. She was communicative and responsive. She handled everything id asked, sent plenty of pictures and videos, and most importantly made my baby feel loved and cared for while I was away. She is our new cat sitter after this trip! It was so nice to have the reassurance of her drop in visits while I was away for a week. And to see how much my cat loved her!! Highly recommend her as a trustworthy petsitter for your fur babies :)”
About: I am excited to help take care of your pet with walks, visits, and house sitting! As a cat mom, I’ve loved taking care of pets and spending time with them. During undergrad, I’ve helped a family friend with their new dog through walks and play. I’ve helped my close friends by watching family dogs and cats as well. I am currently in the Clinical Mental Health Counseling Masters program at NC State! My classes are usually between 4pm-7:30pm, and I am currently walking two dogs in the afternoons. So I’m available in the mornings for walks and drop ins! As a cat mom myself, I will work around my pet schedule to help out yours. Whenever I’m at a pet’s home, I make sure to greet them and follow the necessary steps in their care! I make sure to show them some love and affection while I visit.
“Kaelyn is absolutely amazing & my pup adores her. She watches my fur baby Navy on a weekly basis and I am so grateful to have found someone that I can not only trust my pup with but also my home! She is always responsive, she leaves the BEST review of their time together and always makes sure I have a ton of pics to look forward to. I couldn’t recommend anyone more! Your fur babies will love her just like mine does! 10/10, fully recommend! We appreciate you, Kaelyn!”
“Moriah was wonderful with our 2 cats. In addition to taking great care of them, she brought in many packages and took our trash bin down and back. Sent very detailed updates and made going on vacation easy. Highly recommend.”

I absolutely love Alexandria!! 🐾❤️ She is so caring, dependable, and treats Luna like she’s her own. Every time she comes to let Luna out and spend some time playing with her, I know Luna is in the best hands. It gives me such peace of mind knowing she’s getting attention, love, and plenty of playtime while Im working or away. I couldn’t ask for someone better to care for my girl! Luna absolutely loves her, and we highly recommend her! 🐶💕
Erica was wonderful! She was very kind, reliable, and took great care of my cat while I was away. I really appreciated her updates and the peace of mind she provided throughout the stay. It was clear that she genuinely cared, and I would absolutely book her again. Highly recommend!
Hannah did a wonderful job taking care of my babies while I was out of town! My cats are very shy, and Hannah made sure to find them in their hiding spots, check on them, and ensure they were safe and taken care of. She made my vacation much more relaxing, and I loved seeing the daily pics of my cuties! 💕

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Garner on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 5,366 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Garner. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Garner stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Garner. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
