“Nakia did an amazing job taking care of my roommate and I’s fur babies! We have well behaved pets but it can be tricky keeping them separate while they’re still acclimating to one another. Nakia took all of our rules and quirks in stride and did an outstanding job. We will definitely continue booking with her as frequent travelers and would highly recommend her for pet/house sitting!”

About: I have been around animals my whole life. I have taken care of turtles, birds, hamsters, guinea pigs, dogs and cats. I have dealt with new born dogs and elder care for dogs kittens and older cats. I have clipped nails and worked around many health concerns. I am excited to meet your animal(s) and give it the love it deserves. I am currently a student at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University. My current schedule works out so that I am only taking classes in the morning from 8 - 11pm. This allows me all afternoon to spend with your pet. Most days I am free from class and only have a short meeting to attend. I am very flexible in my schedule. I have dog sat before for over a week and am able to build a good rapport with you dog making sure that they feel safe and loved where they are most comfortable.

“We recently moved to Greensboro and needed a last-minute sitter for a weekend trip away—and we honestly feel like we hit the Rover lottery finding Sarah! She was incredibly professional, warm, and provided fantastic communication from start to finish with regular updates and pictures. Knowing our two dogs were in such safe, capable, and loving hands gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we will absolutely be booking with Sarah again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for top-tier care for their pups!”

About: As an aspiring veterinarian and Animal Science student, I've always had a passion for caring for animals. I've been the proud owner of my Shih Tzu for nearly 7 years, giving me firsthand experience with daily care, grooming, exercise, and understanding a dog's unique needs. I also regularly assist in caring for a well-loved Goldendoodle whenever his owner is away, making sure he stays on his normal routine, gets plenty of attention, and feels comfortable while his family is gone. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always strive to provide safe, loving, and reliable care. I'm currently an Animal Science student, so my class schedule includes breaks throughout the day that give me flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, and spending quality time with your pets. I'm also a member of a cheer team, but I plan my schedule carefully and will always make sure your pet's needs are met. I understand how important routines, attention, and reliability are, and I'm committed to providing dependable care and keeping you updated while you're away. I understand that trusting someone with your pet and your home is a big decision, and I know that trust is something that's earned over time. I'm patient, dependable, and committed to building that trust by treating your pets with the same love, respect, and care that I give my own. Their safety, comfort, and well-being will always be my top priority. I also understand that being away from their owners can be stressful for many pets. That's why I believe caring for them in the comfort of their own home can help provide a sense of security and keep their routine as normal as possible. My goal is to create a calm, loving environment where your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for until you're back home. I also believe in keeping owners updated with messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in good hands.

About: I’m a loving, responsible, and attentive pet sitter who genuinely loves animals and believes they deserve the same patience, care, and affection they receive from their own family. I was raised around dogs, so caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. Being around dogs from a young age has taught me how to be patient with different personalities, recognize when a pet may be uncomfortable or need extra attention, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Most importantly, I genuinely care about the animals I look after. I want every pet in my care to feel safe, happy, comfortable, and cared for. Your pet isn’t just another booking to me. They’re someone’s family, and I treat them that way. Pet sitting is currently a part-time job for me, as I do have another job. I’ll primarily be available on weekends, but as I build my clientele, I hope to expand my availability and offer more flexible dates, including Sunday evenings and additional days for repeat clients. I’ll always do my best to work with your schedule and provide dependable care when you need it! I’m open to providing a variety of pet care services, including drop-in visits, walks, and house sitting. While I’m unable to board pets in my own home because I have my own pet, I’m more than happy to care for pets in their home where they’re most comfortable. When caring for your pet in your home, I’ll respect your space, follow your house rules and your pet’s routine, and make sure your home is left just as I found it. I’ll give your pet plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and companionship while making sure their food, water, medications, potty breaks, and other needs are handled according to your instructions. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel comfortable and confident while you’re away.

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for family pets and about 7 years of hands on experience training and caring for my own dogs. I currently have a small Maltese/Yorkie mix and i understand that every dog has their own personality, energy level, and needs. I’m naturally fun and high functioning energy, so I’m comfortable keeping up with active dogs, but I’d say patience is one of my biggest strengths. Working in healthcare has taught me how important patience, attentiveness, and compassion are, and I bring that same approach when caring for animals. I work PRN(as needed) in healthcare, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to have plenty of time to give your pet the attention and care they deserve. My availability can vary week to week, but I’m able to plan my schedule around pet care and make sure your pet gets plenty of playtime, walks, and companionship. I live in a one-bedroom apartment with access to a dog park, a large open field directly in front of my complex, and several nearby walking trails. I make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and given plenty of opportunities for exercise and outdoor time. I’ll also follow any routines, feeding instructions, or special care preferences you provide so your pet feels as comfortable and safe as possible.

About: My pet care experience comes from owning dogs, caring for family pets, and occasionally looking after friends’ pets when they need an extra helping hand. Being around animals has taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and understanding that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. I’m happy to help with daily routines, feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, and plenty of love and attention. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe and comfortable while you’re away, and I will treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. My goal is to give both pets and their owners peace of mind! I work full-time Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 5 PM, so my pet care availability is primarily on weekends, with some flexibility for early morning visits between 6–7 AM and evenings after work. I’m happy to discuss occasional evening drop-ins or short house-sitting commitments that fit within my schedule. Since I have a dog of my own, I want to make sure I can give every pet the time, attention, and care they deserve while also keeping up with my own pup’s needs. I believe in being reliable, communicating clearly, and only accepting bookings I can fully commit to. I look forward to helping care for your furry family members when my schedule allows! When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping them comfortable by following their normal routines and respecting their familiar environment. I make sure they have fresh food and water, get plenty of attention, and have everything they need while their owners are away. I also respect each owner’s home and follow all care instructions carefully. I want both pets and their owners to feel comfortable and confident while they’re apart, and I love providing updates and photos for peace of mind!

About: Hello 👋🏼 I have experience watching animals for friends and family, and I have had a few cats of my own, including a stray that I took in several years ago, along with her baby that she brought to me shortly after I started feeding her. I’m here to earn some money on the side for the next couple of years, as I am back in school to study radiography🩻. My availability will be dependent on my class and clinical schedule each semester. I am unable to keep any animals in my own home, but I am happy to come to yours! I can do short visits or longer stays.

About: I have been pet-sitting and dog-walking since I was 11 years old and I love it so much. I already love your dog and I guarantee your dog will love me. I have taken care of dogs big to small and I love them all. I’ve never had someone unsatisfied with my dog-handling, only satisfied customers from the pooch to the parents. I’m very good at connecting with and understanding the dog, I know when they want food, when to go out, etc., etc. I have much experience with big dogs also so you don’t need to worry about me being afraid of them. Hope you will consider me!! I'm currently working part time but have plenty of time before and after shifts to take care of your pet. I would make sure to work around my schedule to give the pet the best of care. I am a very respectful house guest, I do what is needed for the dog and keep to myself otherwise. Happy to spend lots of time with the pet or just come and go if they are antisocial.

“Jean-Marie was absolutely fabulous with our older, pitty Sandy. He came by to meet all of us in advance of his start date and Sandy loved him from the start. Her routine requires oral meds twice a day, three leisurely-paced walks per day and time in the sun on the back deck. Based on our garage door app and several Ring cameras around the house, Sandy was extremely well-cared for and loved. Jean-Marie spent the nights at our house and the house was perfectly in order upon our return. Quite honestly, I don't think we've had a better experience with any other dog/house sitter and we give him the highest rating and our grateful appreciation. We will certainly be calling on him for our future dog/house sitting needs.”

About: I am very attentive and adaptable with different pets. Because I’ve had dogs my whole life and have pet sat before, I’m good at picking up on their behavior and understanding what they need. Whether your pet is super active or more laid back, I’ll meet them where they are. I take their safety and comfort seriously, and I always make sure they’re being cared for like they’re my own. My goal is to make the experience as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to plan my day around walks, feedings, and check-ins to make sure pets get consistent attention. Whether it’s early morning, midday, or evening care, I can be reliable and on time. I enjoy staying active, so walks and playtime are something I naturally look forward to. I always prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort, whether I’m in my home or yours. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, and any specific needs to keep things as normal and stress-free as possible. I’m very attentive and make sure pets are supervised, secure, and in a clean, calm environment. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and stick closely to your pet’s usual routine so they feel comfortable. My goal is to build trust with both you and your pet and provide care that feels reliable and genuine.

About: I have 12 years of experience taking care of both cats and dogs of all sizes and multiple breeds. I have previous experience fostering cats, dogs, small pets, and exotics. I am open to working with all breeds of dogs, including and particularly squishy bully breeds. I am comfortable with both standard dog or cat care as well as additional care for pets with special needs, such as giving medication. I’ve worked with multiple pet personality types, such as timid or nervous pets. I have flexible availability and I am available for house-sitting in the form of multiple visits over the course of your time away, but I am not available to stay overnight. I'm able to give plenty of time to go at the pet's pace, administer most medications, and tailor care to suite different personalities and needs.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs my entire life! My family has almost always had multiple dogs, so I’ve grown up with lots of hands-on experience caring for, walking, feeding, playing with, and keeping dogs happy and safe. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, and I genuinely love spending time with them. I’ll treat your dog like they’re part of my own family! I have a flexible schedule and enjoy being able to make time for pet care. I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s routine, whether they need a morning walk, afternoon visit, or some extra love throughout the day! I like to keep pets comfortable by sticking to the routines they already know. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, pay attention to their individual personality and needs, and make sure they get plenty of exercise, companionship, and positive attention. I’ll also keep you updated so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away!

About: I’ve taken care of animals ever since I was 8. Ive had a pet dog and I currently take care of my pet turtle which I’ve had since I was 5. Ive walked plenty of dogs so I’m used to being around them. I’m working a part time job right now so I have all the time in the world. I also take care of my turtle everyday so taking good care of other animals would be perfect for me and my schedule because it gives me something to do. I live in a very family friendly community so you don’t have to worry about your dogs safety and there is also lots of other people walking their dogs as well so i would fit right in walking other dogs

FAQs for House Sitting - Greensboro

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Greensboro is $42 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $76 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 954 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Greensboro. 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 Greensboro 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 Greensboro 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 Greensboro 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 .

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.
