“Michelle was a fantastic sitter for our Pepper. She provided daily updates and photos, and it was apparent that Pepper was enjoying his time with her. We highly recommend Michelle”
About: I’ve moved a lot and everywhere I went my one job that stayed consistent was pet sitting. I started watching family friends and neighbors pets at age 10. Pets have been a very big part of my life since I was little. I do want you to know the price could be higher or lower depending on the specific situation. I’m currently working from my home . I’m available for boarding 7 days a week. I’m at my house full time and would love to have some furry friends over. I live on base, which has dog parks and is very safe. I take walks around my neighborhood frequently so you don’t have to worry about your pet not going out. I don’t have a big fenced in backyard but it is good for small dogs. I have a kitten who loves dogs and cats. He’s very sweet and lovable. I work part-time from my home so i’ll have plenty of time to play,cuddle, and walk your furry friend. My job allows me to choose my own hours so i’m able to make your pet feel loved when they are here. I have a small fenced backyard good for small dogs. I also have a very friendly kitten who loves dogs and cats. There are a lot of dog parks by me along with a lot of places to explore.
“Olivia was amazing! We left our 7m kitten with her, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She sent us daily updates and pictures, which made us feel so comfortable knowing he was happy and well taken care of. He absolutely loved staying with her! He got along so well with her male cat and even had fun with her two kids. Olivia was so sweet, caring, and attentive, and we could tell our kitten was genuinely happy and comfortable with her. We would 100% recommend her and will definitely book with her again!”
“Abigail was a wonderful sitter! I appreciated that she sent pictures and updates often. She was easy to communicate with and took great care of our dog. We will definitely be using her as a sitter again.”
“Karen was phenomenal! She provided excellent communication throughout our dog’s stay and was incredibly attentive and caring. She treated our dog like her own, taking her on walks, car rides, and fun adventures around the community. We loved receiving regular updates, messages, and photos, which gave us peace of mind knowing she was well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend Karen to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and trustworthy pet sitter!”
About: I’ve had experience with many types of animals since I was little. I have experience taking care of dogs and cats of all ages. I also have experience taking care of rodents. I’m a stay at home mom as of right now to a little boy, so I will have all the time in the world to take care of your pets. I would have to work it around his nap schedule but that won’t be a problem at all. While I don’t have a fenced in yard, I can take any animal in my care for walks if it’s needed. I also have a loving cat named Ali to keep any animal that’s with us company.

I have been dog sitting for 10 years and I love it. I currently do travel healthcare and I’m looking for a job on the side with my boyfriend’s help too. I can do walks, home visits, overnight sitting in your home and anything else you’d need for your furry friend.

“Elise was absolutely wonderful to work with. She has great customer/pet skills. She offered a meet and greet, which meant a lot to me personally. She communicated with me throughout summer‘s entire stay including pictures. She made Summer feel as if she were right at home and I could see that in the pictures I would highly recommend Elise to any first time users and I will definitely use her again when needed.”

“It’s a comfort for me when my dog, Zeke, is in Sandy’s care. When I’m away I can focus on what I need to do and I don’t worry about Zeke at all. I’m very grateful for Sandy’s loving care of my little dog. She’s a very wonderful and kind person.”

Book her and your pets will be taken care of guaranteed. 10/10 recommend!!!! Thanks Glory for taking care of my babies.”

About: I’m happy to serve Carteret County. I’ve grown up around all sorts of animals - dogs, cats, horses, chickens, etc. I’ve always loved animals. I also have experience with animals with special needs. I am interested in walking dogs and checking in on pets. I work full time, but am available on my days off and in mornings or afternoons after my regular job. I am available most weekends. For now, I plan to do drop ins and walk dogs. Safety is top priority. I believe in meet and greets before working with animals to make sure the animal and owner is comfortable. I work full time and available most evenings and on my days off. Message me to check my availability. I am usually pretty flexible with my schedule! I am currently not able to accept animals in my own home. I may be able to offer this service in the future, but not at this time.
About: Hi! I am a lifelong dog owner with hands-on experience caring for high-energy breeds. I currently share my home with a Red Heeler and a Goldendoodle, both of whom require significant daily exercise, mental stimulation, and attention. This has given me strong skills in managing active dogs and creating structured, enriching routines. My professional background includes working as an EMT and now as a behavior technician, which has shaped my calm, attentive, and safety-first approach. I’m trained to stay level-headed in emergencies, read behavior cues, and provide patient, consistent care. I’m also an avid surfer, so I’m naturally active and love the outdoors. I’m using Rover as a side gig and I’m always open to long visits, overnight stays, and extended care. I genuinely love all animals and treat every pet like family. You can trust that your pet will receive unconditional love, reliable attention, and excellent care while with me. I work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule. I can fit your pet’s needs into my day and I’m happy to work around your schedule. I’m also available on weekends, plus open to long visits and overnight stays. I live in an apartment complex with a big fenced area for the dogs to play in. There is also trails by the apartment that I walk. Your pet will get care, and exercise all while having the time of their lives!!

Courtney was fantastic! Our selective Jack Russell fell in love with her right away. She was very communicative and sent us updates throughout his stay. We felt our dog was in great hands the entire time. Courtney was very professional, thorough, and warm and friendly. We will definitely be asking her to watch our little guy every time we go away!
Valerie is a terrific person and dog lover. I am happy to find someone who takes care of my pup like she does her own dog. I received lots of photos of our dog and Valerie even sat on the floor beside Pandi to make sure she ate her breakfast. Pandi loved her fenced yard and the company of her dog too!

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 .
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NC ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
