“Andy was really great with our shy kitties. One of them started to warm up to him towards the end of the week. Both kitties ate well and were happy to see my wife and me when we cane home. We will definitely use Andy again.”
“Clarissa and Kenzie were great. They provided consistent updates, and I felt super confident that my sweet, crazy girl was cared for while I was away. Would definitely book with them again.”
“This was the second time I used Stephanie and she was just as incredible this time as she was last. She sent me lots of pictures and I could genuinely tell she was showing my dogs love. I would highly recommend Stephanie.”
“Maegan went above and beyond providing quality care for my kitties! She sent photos and videos multiple times a day, kept me updated on everything, and cleaned the place before she left. She did a great job giving my cat his inhaler and oral medication. I could tell my babies felt super comfortable with her. Maegan will be the first person I call when I need a sitter from now on! 😁”
“Amazing sitter! Katelyn sent us lot’s of updates and followed all care instructions— she made us feel totally at ease while we were away! We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend!”
“Victoria was amazing. She provided incredible care for our boys, one being special needs. We will absolutely welcome her back to stay with our boys.”
“Alina took the BEST care of our cat Sammy. Every morning and night, she sent us pictures and updates on how Sammy was doing. Our cat got sick a couple days before she arrived in our home to watch Sammy so he really didn’t have an appetite and wasn’t drinking as much water. Alina put so much effort into getting Sammy to eat and drink. She even went out a got food that she thought he would like and he loved it. I’m really so grateful for everything she did for Sammy. Through the videos and pictures she sent of Sammy, you could tell how much he loved her. Alina washed everything she used before we got home and cleaned up. She is so caring, loving, and will love your pet as her own. I’ve always been nervous of leaving Sammy with a sitter when we go out of town, I never felt nervous leaving Sammy with Alina. She is so reassuring and great. Thank you Alina for taking such great care of Sammy and our home! 1000000/10 stars!!!❤️”
“Having never used Rover before, I was a little nervous about leaving my animals with someone new. Jeni was wonderful! She sent pictures of my pets, and kept me informed as to how they were doing. She grabbed the mail for me and left the house spotless!! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”
“The second time I have asked Karena to look after my dog, and this time was difficult, as the house lost power for 18 hours during the middle of a heat wave, while the internet was effectively out for two full days. Karena was a great sport, extremely communicative, patient, and showed real care and concern for my dog under the circumstances. I really appreciated this and would absolutely have her back.”
“Justin has always been the best dog sitter for my baby! he keeps the house so clean, takes care of my dog like his own, and sends amazing photos!! I highly recommend him :)”
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs for my family, friends, and neighbors! Most of my experience includes in home pet sitting, walking, and check-ins. I’m a long time animal lover and I’m excited to meet yours! I’m currently an online college student, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I’m available all weekend, Monday and Tuesday. If you need care for longer, that can also be arranged! Depending on your pets needs I can provide check-ins or an in-home pet sitting, offering a more comfortable time for your pets while you’re away!
“Chrissonna was an awesome dog sitter for our two dogs! She is reliable and responsible, and she clearly loves dogs. Ours must have loved her too because we came home to happy dogs. Highly recommend!”
“Devin stayed at our house for a week and cared for our cat. She was very good with our shy kitty and I think our cat may now like her better than she likes us. Devin was always prompt in answering messages and did everything we asked of her. I highly recommend Devin.”
“Myra is amazing!! Very trustworthy, extremely friendly and personable. And was so sweet to our pup. She took very good care of our 14 week old puppy and we will certainly rebook with her again. She did everything that we asked and more. Highly recommend!”
“Lia was absolutely amazing!! She took great care of our pup and home while we were away. Appreciated her keeping us updated and sending pictures. Will definitely be using again!”
About: Hi! I have 4 years of hands-on pet care experience, working with all sorts of dogs from new puppies to scared rescues who I fostered. Some of the dogs I’ve fostered struggled with separation anxiety and fear-based aggression. Caring for these dogs and helping them find their forever homes gave me valuable insight on how to slowly build trust, the importance of routine, and most importantly showing them that they are safe! Caring for a wide range of dogs and learning I started basic training with my puppy, Benjamin, and foster dogs while in my care. I loved learning along side them and gained knowledge that can help keep your pup safe and happy! I focus on positive reinforcement training, and depending on the pup, will include treats for those who are extra food motivated! I have worked on: leash skills, handling, and both basic and semi-advanced commands. Prior to all bookings, a meet and greet must take place to ensure a good fit for both parties! Service descriptions listed below: **BOARDING** I provide a calm, loving home where pups can relax, play, and feel safe. I work from home 5 days per week, which means plenty of companionship, potty breaks, and enrichment throughout the day. I am typically gone at most 4-5 hours at a time. I also live with my partner, Denard, who will occasionally assist with potty breaks for your dog if I need to be out of the house for an extended period 8+ hours, or I’m the case of emergencies. ** HOUSE-SITTING ** When providing house-sitting, I will be staying overnight in your home and will be following your pups schedule to maintain as much consistency in their routine as possible. The rate listed on my profile for house-sitting care includes: Care in home from 7pm - 7am with a mid-morning and mid-afternoon drop-in. If your pet needs constant care (your dog cannot be left alone for more than 2 hours at a time, OR 2 hours total over the course of the day), the rate is $125/day. All cameras in the home must be disclosed at the meet and greet. **DROP-INS** Drop-in visits are typically 30 or 60 minutes, and include food and fresh fresh water, potty breaks, lots of love and attention, indoor/outdoor playtime, and any medication needed. **WALKS** Walks can be 30 or 60 minutes, and include a walk in your neighborhood, fresh water provided, potty breaks, and love and attention! My home is in a walkable area with no elevators and easy access to an off-leash dog park. There’s plenty of space for your pup to feel comfortable, plus a well-socialized golden retriever who loves having a playmate. I keep a clean environment with clear, consistent boundaries inside and on leash, ensuring your pup gets structure, love, and attention that meets their unique needs—whether they’re playful, shy, or somewhere in between. When caring for your pup in your home, I prioritize keeping things consistent and comfortable. I take the time to understand your routines, rules, and preferences so your dog experiences as little disruption as possible. Every household—and every dog—is different, and I’m here to support your style of care. Whether that means sticking to a specific walking schedule, reinforcing house rules, or maintaining feeding rituals, I’ll follow your lead to ensure your pup feels safe, secure, and right at home.
“Morganne provided excellent care and communication as our pet sitter over Thanksgiving. I am hoping she is willing to sit. For us again. Morganne provided frequent updates and video and pics. It was fun to see my happy pups.”
“Jeffrey was amazing with our puppy! It was our first time leaving her and we were super nervous about it. Jeffrey communicated everything and sent reassuring photos while we were away. Our puppy loved Jeffrey and we are already looking to book him again!”

Natalie and her husband were incredibly caring and dependable. It was obvious that Tulip was not just being watched—she was truly loved and treated like part of their family. They kept me updated everyday while I was away, which gave me so much peace of mind and allowed me to enjoy my vacation without worrying.
Maegan went above and beyond providing quality care for my kitties! She sent photos and videos multiple times a day, kept me updated on everything, and cleaned the place before she left. She did a great job giving my cat his inhaler and oral medication. I could tell my babies felt super comfortable with her. Maegan will be the first person I call when I need a sitter from now on! 😁
Tiffani was amazing with our dogs. Our dogs were super comfortable and were so happy to be with her while we were away. She sent photos and videos and checked in with us to let us know the dogs were happy while we were away. Tiffani was so kind and treated our dogs like they were her family. Will be booking her again for our next trip; thank you so much Tiffani!!
Devin was a fantastic dog and house sitter for us for the week we were out of town. I’m always nervous about leaving our dogs with someone new, but she was warm, responsive, checked in regularly, and we could tell our girls had a great time with her. We will definitely be using her for all of our future sitter needs!
Words cannot describe how phenomenal of a pet/house sitter Carson is! She went above and beyond for our entire 9 day trip, taking the most incredible care of our animals. Our cat had recently been diagnosed with diabetes right before our trip, and she was so observant about any changes in behavior and managed the insulin administered beautifully. Our dog is absolutely obsessed with her too! She is an excellent communicator, followed every direction to a t, and is so thoughtful. When we returned from our trip she had completely deep cleaned all the common spaces and the guest room she stayed it, even offering to do the laundry. I seriously cannot recommend her enough - we will definitely be rebooking her every opportunity we get!!
Melissa was amazing help with our two Goldens. Not only did she provide great for them but she also helped us out with very short notice. I never felt worried about our pups and am so grateful to have such peace of mind while being on vacation. Will definitely use Melissa again!
Brittany was great with rex. She sent me daily pictures of him and he looked happy and relaxed. During her stay with rex he did develop a sore on one of his paws but Brittany kept me up to date with him daily and even went so far as to get him a cone to prevent further issues with his paw. I would recommend Brittany as a house sitter and dog sitter any day.
Aby was wonderful, we could tell our potatoes were treated with as much care as we normally do. Momo kept going back to the guest room afterwards looking for her. She followed our instructions and we have no complaints. Our place was left clean, and she even left out a thawed dog food packet for us in the fridge. It was really nice coming back from a trip without feeling overwhelmed about making sure we had the little stuff to take care of. We definitely recommend and wouldn't hesitate to book again for our next trip. Thank you much Aby!

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 Indian Trail 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 Indian Trail 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 Indian Trail 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
