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.
“Arden was so sweet to help me in a last minute pinch. She took the time to do a meet and greet, was always on time, and sent adorable pictures of our pup all weekend. Thanks Arden!”
About: I grew up with cats and now as an adult have owned dogs for 20 years. I also foster dogs for Red Dog Farm. I’ve taken care of everything from potty trainings puppies to senior dogs that need daily medication. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m generally available a few hours each weekday and most of the day on Wednesdays and Fridays. I can help on some weekends as needed. I have a large fenced in yard and great walking trails near my house if your dog is boarding with me. We don’t have pets of our own right now so your pup would receive my full attention. I love to send clients pics and videos so you know your pet is well taken care of.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats all of my life as well as worked/volunteered in animal shelters. I am very patient and don’t scare easily which is a must with animals. Overall, I am an extreme animal lover! I’m currently a full time student with a pretty flexible day-to-day schedule. More often than not, I can accommodate the times you need. I am very attentive to pets within the home, as I am used to pet/house sitting. I also provide light cleaning, and anything else that might make the experience more enjoyable for me and the pets.
About: Hannah: My friends and family rely on me to care for their pets when they’re out of town. I will provide the best service so that your pet barely notices you’re gone and has a great time! Our Mission: Our mission is to provide exceptional and compassionate care that prioritizes the well-being, happiness, and safety of your pets. We strive to build strong and trusting relationships with both pets and their owners by consistently providing personalized care and peace of mind. Hannah: I strive to make pet sitting my central focus. I’m an online college student at Arizona State University which allows me the flexibility to travel and provide care as needed. Hannah: I am respectful of other peoples property and I provide the love your animal is missing while you’re gone. I love ensuring your high energy pets get the exercise and stimulation they require.
About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and feel comfortable caring for pups with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Spending time with dogs has taught me how to be patient, attentive, and understanding of their body language. Whether we’re going for a walk, playing, practicing routines, or simply relaxing together, I enjoy making sure every dog feels safe, happy, and cared for. I’m a recently graduated 18 year old, with too much free time! I have always had a passion for animals, and honestly couldn't think of a better time passer than helping people and their animals! I care for every single pet differently, different animals have different needs and every one should be cared for in their own way. For example, if a dog is older they may not be able to go on as long of a walk as a younger puppy.
About: I have had pets my whole life. I love taking care of them and I’m very good at it. I have taken care of cats, dogs, guinea pigs, bunnies, hamsters, bearded dragons, and even a chinchilla. I am in college right now. I am available anytime Saturday-Monday. For the rest of the week, I am available anytime after 3 pm. Except for Friday, I’m available anytime after 4 pm. Since I am currently in college, I can’t bring any pets back with me so I would have to pet sit at your home. I can crate your dog when needed. I’m very good at disciplining animals. I do not yell and I definitely do not hit.
About: My entire life, I've enjoyed caring for animals. Ever since I was 13, I've pet-sit for friends, family, and neighbors. On top of caring for other animals, I have 5 pets at home! I have two cats (one is a registered ESA!), one dog, and two turtles! I've also spent 2 years volunteering on a horse farm taking care of horses, chickens, cats, and a dog. I also have plenty of experience taking care of birds, rodents, and rabbits. Any animal you have, I'll gladly take care of! As a full time student at UNCG, my schedule varies from semester to semester. Currently, I'm free on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays anytime from 6am-1pm and 3:30pm-10pm. On weekends I'm fully free! I have a ton of love in my heart for animals, so I will be happy to put in effort for any need you may have. My ESA actually has severe anxiety, so if you have any animals with special needs, I have ample experience with that. I've also taken care of disabled animals. I like to put effort into spending my time with your animal and making sure they get all the attention (or lack thereof!) that they need.
About: I have loved, owned and cared for pets all my life (dogs, cats, gerbils, hamsters, guinea pigs, rats, mice, birds, fish, chickens). I have also volunteered for many pet-related organizations (SPCA, Wake County Animal Shelter, Second Chance Pet Adoption and the Guilford County Animal Shelter [GCAS]). I currently foster dogs for GCAS; all are strays or surrenders with unknown backgrounds and varying temperaments, some of whom I house train and teach to walk on a leash, and all of whom I shower with patience, love and affection. I am here to do the same for your pet: provide the love, personalized care and comfort that he and/or she deserves. I work from home (I am a freelancer with lots of free time), so I can easily adapt to pet needs, whether it be walks, enjoying/playing in the fenced-in backyard, and any schedules. Plus, my partner is retired and is at home much of the time, and he loves and dotes on pets just as much as I do. I have a fenced-in yard and pets can go out anytime they wish during the day/evening before bedtime. Plus, in the house, there are plenty of windows so dogs can see the world around them. Lastly, we live in a one-story home, so it's easy for pets of all ages to get around.
“Kendal was amazing! She respected my home space and gave me active updates on my pups and truly spent time with them! She knows what she’s doing and knows how to care based on moods of my pets!”
“Sarah did an excellent job with drop in visits on my cat for 4 days. She followed all the instructions I left exactly and communicated very well the whole time. Would absolutely rebook”
About: Not only have I cared for my own pets, but I also have a degree in Zoo Science that included 700 hours worth of intern work with red dog farm animal rescue network. There I got experience with all kinds of animals (cats, dogs, farm, reptiles, birds). I am currently working part time and a restaurant and the schedule is fairly flexible. I should be able to make several different times work within it I am familiar with both cat and dog body language and know what to look for when safety may be a concern. I also have experience in operant conditioning (training) and I’m knowledgeable of basic commands.
“Emma was wonderful with Magnolia. She came on time and spent a lot of time with her. She sent pictures with each visit. It really eased my mind knowing she was well taken care of while we were away. I highly recommend Emma.”
“Caroline was excellent! She came over for a meet and greet with very short notice and was able to watch my 2 pups for 5 days, 4 check ins a day. She was reliable and great with the dogs - they seemed to really love her. She was a great communicator too and kept me up to date everyday. Would definitely use again!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover since I was little and have spent years caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. For the past year, I’ve been pet sitting two fun-loving huskies, keeping them entertained with walks, play time, and plenty of attention. I love getting to know each pet’s unique quirks and making sure they get the attention they deserve. I work full-time during the week, but my schedule allows me plenty of time to give pets the attention they deserve. I come home during my lunch break to provide walks, potty breaks, meals, and check-ins, so pets are never left alone for long. After work, I have ample time for longer walks, playtime, cuddles, and any extra care they may need. I believe pets are happiest in the comfort of their own home, where they can stick to their familiar routines and surroundings. When caring for pets in their home, I provide personalized attention, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and plenty of love and companionship. I understand the importance of keeping pets on their regular routine and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away.
About: Besides the normal care giving needed for your dog or cat I am able to administer medications and injections to animals if required. I am a retired nurse. Have always had pets in my life whom I’ve cared for and loved. I am very flexible as I am retired. I am available any day of the week as long as I’m not already booked. I am open to holidays as well. Your dog or kitty under my care would have my undivided attention. Safety would be number one on my checklist. Making your pet feel secure and loved would also be on that list just as if they were my own.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Greensboro
Sarah was a sweet and kind to our cat Star. She scooped her litter, fed her treats, maintained her water and food levels and supported her emotionally while we were out of town. She even watered our plants and overall went above and beyond the last sitter we had. We will definitely be booking her in the future!
Christopher made our wedding weekend stress free by ensuring our fur baby was well taken care of! Between the detailed description of his visits and the pictures he provides, we can always count on him to take amazing care of our baby and lift a huge weight off our shoulders!
Ashley was Purrfect! She showed up at the times we talked about and took such great care of Bobo. I felt at ease while I was gone on my business trip. I loved the pictures and updates she shared of Bobo to let me know he was okay. I highly recommend Ashley to take care of your furry baby! I will call on Ashley again. Thank you Ashley!
Claire did such an amazing job caring for our cats while we were out of town! She is so kind and the cats warmed up to her very quickly, and was also super communicative and sent wonderful detailed updates! We would highly recommend her for all your pet sitting needs, and will definitely be booking with her again in the future!
Sarah was very attentive and thoughtful, making sure our cat was well taken care of, had everything she needed, and was safe. They had great communication throughout the booking and we felt comfortable trusting them with our cat. Would definitely recommend Sarah and plan to book them again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Greensboro is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $28 per visit. 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 November 2026, there are 1,659 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Greensboro. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Greensboro. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 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.
