“Jess was great, sent a lot of pics and let us know how are cats were doing each day. The cats seemed to love her as well. Gave me a lot of peace of mind while leaving our cats the longest we ever have. Will definitely be using her again if we ever need a cat sitter.”
“Danielle was a fantastic dog/cat sitter! She always kept us up to date with her check in’s. My dog was happy to have someone to hang out with while we were gone. We will definitely use her again. Thanks Danielle!”
“Lizzy is great! She took great care of our kitties again while we were on vacation. I appreciated her thoughtful updates daily letting me know how our cats were doing. She even noticed a small scratch near my cats eye and monitored it daily to make sure it didn’t get worse. She is very attentive and reliable.”
“Ally was great! She rolled with the punches my crew threw at her and communicated everyday with the happenings. I appreciated her attentiveness and patience winning over my shy pup! Will definitely request her again for my future trips.”
“We had an absolutely amazing experience! Suzanne and rick they took such great care of our two dogs and treated them like their own. Every day we received pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear from the photos how happy and comfortable our dogs were. They were reliable, communicative, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be booking with them again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring!”
About: Hi! I’m Carrie, and I’m a lifelong animal lover who understands that pets are family. As a Navy retiree, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive, reliable care and plenty of one-on-one time with your pet. Whether your furry friend needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm and caring companion while you’re away, I’ll treat them as if they were my own. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving you complete peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! Since my kids are pretty grown now, it seems my life revolves around my animals. I am active, so I love to take the pups for walks or hikes (depending on weather). The cats sort of do their own thing, but I’m always down for cat snugs. Our home does allow animals to have free roam. They are allowed in all rooms and on furniture. If your babies are not good with cats, we will not be able to take them. We will give them all the love while you are away and send your photos as much (or as little) as you would like. In your home I will respect all your rules. If you don’t want them on furniture or particular rooms, just let me know and we will follow those guidelines. The love and photo sending mentioned above applies here!
“Alanna was awesome. Our normal next-door pet sitter had something come up this week and Alanna worked with us as short notice to take care of our dogs. She was timely, courteous, and the dog seems to love her, and we’re well cared for when we got home each night.”
“Made me feel very comfortable entrusting her with my fur babies. Also, I have to say awesome job bc of course my shy pup needs insulin and she must have gotten Harley to warm up to her pretty quickly. I got great updates and never felt anxious or nervous about my babies being in good hands!”
“Kacie was amazing!! She took great care of my boy, was always on time, and went above and beyond while I was out of town. I truly appreciated all of the photos she took as well. I will absolutely be using Kacie in the future!”
“Thank you for going above and beyond for Heath! You were there at the right time to get him out of the water and still feed him and give him his meds. Your a hero!”
About: I worked at Allen Veterinary Clinic in Texas earning my Vet Tech Certification and am currently enrolled in online college after leaving the Marine Corps. Dogs and cats have been my speciality but I love all animals. I am currently a stay at home parent enrolled in online school. Most weekdays am available in the early morning and late afternoons but am flexible for really any time line. I treat all animals as though they were my own and then some. Animals have funny personalities and each unique in their own way, I do my best to honor their likes and dislikes as well as yours!
“I had an amazing experience with ceci! She was able to accommodate my two golden retrievers very last minute, which I truly appreciated. My boys had such a great time with her and came back happy and well cared for. She communicates effectively and clearly, which gave me peace of mind throughout the whole process. It’s obvious she treats your pets like her own. I would definitely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!”
“Makayla does a great job and is very flexible when it comes to schedule times to do drop ins. My dog loves her and gets plenty of playtime during the visit. Highly recommended!”
“Allana was great. She was always on time and was great with my dog. My dog is very shy and doesn’t get comfortable with everyone but warmed up to Allana really fast. She communicated and sent me pictures and updates after every visit. I would highly recommend her.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Holly Ridge on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,301 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Holly Ridge. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Holly Ridge stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Holly Ridge. On Rover:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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 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.
