“Shannah was absolutely amazing . My pup got sick and she went above and beyond to make sure he was ok. Her communication was exceptional. Will definitely use her in the future”
“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.”
“Kaylee was great! This was my first time using Rover and I was very nervous, but Kaylee was able to watch my dog Leo on short notice and make me feel confident my boy was in good hands 😊. She came on time, gave me updates, and took excellent care of Leo! I would definitely book with her again. Thank you Kaylee!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 10, as the neighborhood dog sitter! I worked as an animal specialist at PetSmart throughout college and have a great love for all animals. As a dog mom of 3 rescues I totally understand in importance in showing everyone love, especially those who struggle with separation anxiety. I am extremely patient and love giving amazing belly rubs and really long walks! I am currently a stay at home dog mom so picking up mid day check ins is fairly easy for me! I have three rescue dogs of my own and truly understand the importance of a mid day potty/play break! I will take care of your pet like they are my own! If that means your dog has to sleep under the blanket they are more the welcome to keep my feet warm!
“Kayla did a fantastic job! I’ve never hired a pet sitter before, so I was really nervous about how my animals would do. She was very reassuring and sent me pictures and updates every day. She did fantastically with the dogs, especially my really anxious one. I appreciated how attentive she was to my dogs’ health. She let me know quickly when one of them inevitably puked from stress and made sure they were both happy and tired before leaving for the day.”
“Hailey was amazing for taking care of our three dogs. She was with them for almost two weeks while we were traveling and she made the experience so easy. She’s very communicative and goes above and beyond. We have a lab with separation anxiety and it even included a vet trip for her. She was was so great throughout the whole experience. I will absolutely book with her anytime in the future!”
“Alyssa was fantastic. We just arrived home to two very happy pups. Alyssa did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs and the house was immaculate. She was communicative and provided updates and photos. Would definitely recommend her.”
“We are thankful for Lillian! Our dogs took to her immediately and she sent great photos. We know they were well cared for while we were away. And our house was kept clean and tidy! We (and the dogs) would love to have her back!”
About: Hi, I’m Hanna, and I love animals all shapes and sizes! I grew up surrounded by all sorts of pets and helped care for them by the age of 7! I have since had 15 years of experience taking care of dogs and cats! I prioritize meeting the animals needs of each client I have. For those with more energy, I love going for walks, hiking, and playing fetch! I am also content to bask in the sun or curl up with the older and calmer pets too! If I sound like a good fit for your pet, please don’t hesitate to reach out! I currently work full-time M-F 8-5 with a flexible lunch break to allow visits and potty breaks for the pets I care for. This addition to my schedule is to add some extra fun and adventure to my days. Plus I love all the pets, but currently do not have any of my own to enjoy. I have house sat for many people including family, neighbors, and other folks like you for the past 4 years! I keep a careful eye on those with a yard and enjoy taking all pets out for some fresh air and new smells on walks! I’m very adaptable and flexible with every environment and take the necessary precautions to ensure all pets safety at all times when I am caring for them.
“Kendal was very reliable and took care of my baby on such short notice! Great service and very professional. This is my first time using a sitter, and so I was nervous and anxious but Kendal made the experience easy, and took care of my pup very well! Will definitely book again with her!”
“Pilar stayed in our house with our Yorkie while we were on vacation. Pilar was very professional and sent photos and updates each day. Unfortunately, our seven night booking with her had to be cut short by three days due to the effects that Pilar experienced from the smell coming from our pilot light of our gas log fireplace. She offered to do drop-in visits for the remaining three days, but I was able to find an alternative for Bella‘s care. I appreciated the fact that she was willing to do what she could to help out. We returned to a clean house and certainly recommend Pilar as a dog/house sitter.”
“Heidi was five minutes early for both the meet and greet and the actual house sitting booking. Finn had a great time with her, and I was very happy with how she cared for him. I received lots of updates and photos. We will not hesitate to book her again!”
“Gabe is a nice man with a great heart for your pet(s). He communicates well and delivers on his promises. I feel I can trust him again to take care of my fur family of five.”
“Brett was great with our dogs! We did a meet n greet the day before, and our dogs settled in with him fairly quickly when he came to house sit. He sent daily updates with pictures and videos, which was very much appreciated. We felt very comfortable knowing our dogs were so well taken care of while we were gone. We highly recommend Brett!”

Cameron stayed with our 3 pets (one cat two dogs) overnight and was perfect! She even came a few times before so our very spoiled and needy pets would get to know her better. She was gracious and kind to the animals and respectful of our home. I would highly recommend Cameron and will be using her again!
Sarah was INCREDIBLE. She was punctual, communicative, and patient with my cattle dog. She got him to play ball when normally he won’t trust anyone enough to do that. Which speaks volumes to me, knowing he was comfortable with her. Such peace of mind - I will definitely book her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Gibsonville on Rover is $36.63 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,163 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Gibsonville. 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 Gibsonville 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 Gibsonville 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 Gibsonville 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 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.
