About: I have taken care of lots of pets and have had a bunch of pets my self. I have an orange cat who loves to play and I have a bearded dragon as well. I’ve taken care of 5 dogs at once that were all high energy but so loving. I’ve had experience with bigger dogs like great Danes and German shepherds. I’m in college and have classes at 11:00-11:50 and on some days I have a class at 3:00. And I work 4-10 on Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday and Sundays. But I can work around that to help you with your animals How I care for my cat beachy is I feed him in the morning before school and when I get home I play with him and gets his energy out. Then after awhile I will get my bearded dragon out and let him explore I also clean his cage and feed him. For my clients I can follow there schedule they have in place for there pets and I will treat them like my own.
“Daniel did a great job with our two boys. We have one who requires a lot of work because he is anxious, and the worst he did was eat a couple of paper napkins, which is a minor miracle. We really appreciated Daniel's dedication to them, and we would definitely hire him again.”
“David watched my 2 dogs and my house while on a cruise. This is the longest I've ever left my dogs. They were both excited but not crazy wild. I got regular updates and pics of the pups. I recommend and will use again.”
“Maylan took amazing care of our babies while we were out of town. She took time to get to know them at a meet and greet before booking, she asked questions, she showed interest in making sure they were well taken care of. She sent photos daily with check ins during the day. She is so kind and thoughtful. It was an absolute pleasure to work with her, and I will definitely work with her again. Our pets loved her!”
“Ashlyn did an amazing job caring for our two large dogs while staying at our home for a couple of nights. They can be a handful and definitely aren’t the easiest dogs to manage, but she handled everything with confidence and professionalism. She kept us updated throughout our trip with messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. It’s clear that Ashlyn is experienced and truly understands dogs. We came home to happy, well cared for pups and a house that was just as we left it. We would absolutely trust her with our dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, knowledgeable pet sitter.”
“I am a bit OCD about my boy, who also happens to be a big baby who can't eat, poo or pee if left at boarding. Anthony was great. He provided me with pics and updates and proved to be a great sitter for my pup. Thanks!”
“Chelsea took such great care of my boys. She sent tons of pics great pics to keep me updated and I could tell they were in great hands and had so much fun. She left the house in great condition and just as good as we left it. Will definitely rebook with her again in the future.”
“vanessa was incredible! cannot say enough good things. she stayed with our high-energy pup over christmas week while we traveled. she sent tons of pictures, cleaned the house spotless, and even left us a sweet card and some christmas cookies to welcome us home. she did the sheets laundry for the room she stayed in so i didn’t have to hassle with that when i got home too, and she wheeled our garbage cans in and out for trash day. she was truly amazing!!! will definitely use her again!”
“Aja deserves 10 stars, we highly recommend her to anyone seeking her service. She’s very professional and structured, and followed all of our little requests. We loved her thorough and personalized updates throughout her stay with our dog. We felt comfortable with her in our home and with our German shepherd, who seemed to warm up to her quickly. We look forward to having her back soon!”
About: I think my personalities and empathy sets me apart from others!! I love to treat other the way that I want to be treated. Therefore, I’ll treat your pet with love and care! I’m home from college so I don’t have anything to do. So my schedule is very open and flexible! So I can bring my attention to give your pet love and care! I’m very respectful of others property and things. So if you allow me to come into your home you wouldn’t even know I came in there!
“Could not have asked for anything more. So attentive and communicative. Above and beyond in every possible way. Thanks for all the pictures and updates. Thanks for the daily walks. Thanks for the love you gave to Toby and Freya. Left my house clean and tidy. Highly recommend!!!”
“Zoey was amazing! My dogs have separation anxiety and she made sure they were well loved and taken care of in their own home to help them feel more comfortable. She sent picture updates so I knew our babies were doing well, and she was super response and reliable. Will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“We had the BEST experience with Loren watching our dogs! She watched our two golden retrievers and even brought her own golden over during the day so they could all play together. Our boys loved it! She kept us updated, took great care of everyone, and treated our house like it was her own. She sent lots of cute pictures too. Highly recommend Loren and will definitely use her again in the future🤩”
About: My parents realized I needed a dog in my life when I was child because I would try to pet my fish... ;) As a family we've had dogs since I was around 6 years old. I began dog-sitting for a neighbor when I was in middle school and that included helping care for two puppies when I was a bit older. Over the last few years my petsitting/housesitting relationships have steadily increased. I've helped friends by caring for their puppies, dogs, senior dogs, kittens, cats, and even a bird! Before I moved to NC I had keys for about 5 friends' homes since I am on standby for pet-sitting duties when they go out of town. My boyfriend and I are the proud parents of 1 dog, 2 cats, and 21 quail chicks! I am currently working 8:30am-5:00pm Monday-Friday in Holly Springs but hope my schedule works to care for your fur babies! I am typically very flexible during weekends. As someone who had an escape artist dog growing up I know the importance of safety, including keeping doors closed. I'm familiar with many different types of leashes, halters, Gentle Leader, even muzzles and am confident in using any your dog may utilize. I am also happy to crate your puppy/dog if needed.

FAQs for House Sitting - Harnett
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Harnett on Rover is $77.15 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,911 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Harnett. 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 Harnett 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 Harnett 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 Harnett 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Harnett. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
