“Alyssa was fantastic. We just arrived home to two very happy pups. Alyssa did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs and the house was immaculate. She was communicative and provided updates and photos. Would definitely recommend her.”
“Susan was amazing with our animals. She was so communicative and sent us pictures and updates everyday. Our four pets were well taken care of for the week. This is the first time my wife and I had to both travel for work at the same time. Susan took the job last minute and bonded with all the animals right away. We highly recommend her and will definitely use her again.”
“Shannah was absolutely amazing . My pup got sick and she went above and beyond to make sure he was ok. Her communication was exceptional. Will definitely use her in the future”
“Kayla did a fantastic job! I’ve never hired a pet sitter before, so I was really nervous about how my animals would do. She was very reassuring and sent me pictures and updates every day. She did fantastically with the dogs, especially my really anxious one. I appreciated how attentive she was to my dogs’ health. She let me know quickly when one of them inevitably puked from stress and made sure they were both happy and tired before leaving for the day.”
About: I've taken care of animals my whole life, from wildlife rehabilitation to training adopted dogs and cats from the side of the road, I've seen it all. Let me know if you need any help pet sitting or walking! I work as a music teacher and performer, weekdays are often the best for me but let me know what you need and I'll see what I can do! We have 11 acres including four acre field, one dog, two cats, and a rescue mini pig that all love each other and love making friends.
About: I’ve been a proud dog mom for over 25 years and currently have two spunky Chihuahuas who keep me laughing every day. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities—from tiny lap dogs to big bundles of energy. I know how important it is to feel at ease while your pup is with someone else, so I treat every dog like family. Whether it’s walks, belly rubs, playtime, or just cuddling on the couch, I make sure your furry friend feels loved, safe, and cared for. I also have experience with senior dogs and pups that need a little extra patience or medication, so you can trust they’ll be in good hands. At the end of the day, I believe dogs are the best friends in the world, and I can’t wait to meet yours! 🐶❤️ I'm currently working part time so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pet. I also live close by to Tanger outlets and the Burlington area. I have a yard for my dogs to run, play with toys and fetch. Also I enjoy walking trails at the local parks or arboretum.
“Salem took wonderful care of our two pups and three cats (as well as our home) — several of whom needed medication or had some sort of special/extra needs! She was communicative, kind, and conscientious throughout. Highly recommend.”
“Pilar was incredible! Exactly what we needed for our elderly dog. Our house was pristine when we came home and she updated us throughout the trip. Will absolutely be booking her again!”
About: Hi, I have a passion for animals and I make sure they are well cared for! I go the extra mile to make sure they don’t feel sad while you are away. Hi! I am a mom of 3 and a nanny but I still pet sit. Sometimes I have to bring my kids and the kids I care for with me. I make sure they don’t damage anything. They are pampered with plenty of love! I treat them as part of the family and make sure to take pictures to send to the family.
“Chevaughn did an amazing job! One of my dogs (Toffee) is 'very' skittish & does not warm up to new people well (it often takes weeks - sometimes months - for people just to be able to pet her). However, when we did the first meet & greet, Toffee was curious & got close enough to sniff him, which I thought was a great sign. But then... Chevaughn was actually able to pet her before leaving. She was wary, but let him. It kinda shocked me a bit. We had met with 2 other potential sitters & Toffee wouldn't get near them. With one of them, she wouldn't even come inside the house from the yard, not even for a treat, so long as the lady was there. Chevaughn has great energy, though. He was calm & assertive, moved gently around Carlee & Toffee, and they both became fast friends with him. While we were away, he even sent video of her licking his hand. That was a huge deal... Chevaughn was reliable, on time, consistent & most importantly, he is kind. Next time we need a sitter, he's our guy and I highly recommend him for taking care of your pups..”
“My dog is very wary of new people, and therefore requires someone who really understands dogs. Kelly agreed to meet our dog prior to sitting for us, and my husband was amazed at how our dog (who often has fear-based aggression with new people) INSTANTLY loved Kelly! Kelly sent us pictures 2-3 times a day, which showed us that our dog was having a great time! Will definitely book again!”
About: I've been caring for animals since I was 10 years old, and over the years, friends and neighbors have trusted me with the special care of their beloved pets. For over a year, I worked in a lab-like setting providing daily care to a wide variety of exotic animals, including reptiles, amphibians, small mammals and birds. My responsibilities included feeding, cleaning, and general husbandry for each species. I also have experience caring for senior animals, including administering medication and performing nail trims, so I'm comfortable with pets who need a little extra attention and care. I currently work part-time and am finishing up my Associate's degree, which gives me a good amount of flexibility during the week to care for your fur babies. On days I work an 8-hour shift, there may be a slightly longer gap between potty breaks, but I always plan ahead and communicate clearly so you know exactly what to expect. Providing consistent, quality care for your animals is a top priority for me, no matter my schedule. When I care for your pets in their own environment, I bring nothing but comfort and love. I give excellent cuddles and scritches, and genuinely enjoy enriching their day with play. I know when to be calm and reassuring, and when to be playful and energetic, adapting to match each pet's unique personality. Every animal I care for receives quality, individualized attention tailored to exactly what they need. Above all, you can count on me to be reliable and consistent, every single time.
“Our mini golden doodle was well taken care of with Emi. She was responsible, responsive (sending pictures) and we came home to a cleaner house than when we had left. We would highly recommend Emi!”
“Heather was wonderful with Gunner! She followed our instructions, kept him busy with his favorite puzzles, and sent photos throughout the sit. We would absolutely book her again.”
About: DISCLAIMER * As of 10/26/2024 * If i cannot meet you and your pets before the start of the booking, i will not accept the booking. This has become a safety issue for me. I will no longer be able to accept verbal verification that your pet will be fine with a stranger entering the home. (Exceptions are small puppies) I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10. My neighbor growing up had 4 cats, that I loved dearly! She was the first person who allowed me to watch her fur babies when she went on vacation! I've pet sat many times since then. Dogs big and small of all breeds from a little pug to a 100lb+ Rottweiler. I own a 85lb pit bull mix and a 10lb weenier dog. 🐶 They are my babies.💗 I can drop in anytime to check on your fur babies. Spend extra time with them. I do bathing, and walks also! If you need your fur babies to be crated, no problem! I will make sure their safety comes first. You can put your mind at ease knowing your pets will be taken care of! This is my full time job, I enjoy every second of it! So day or night I can always do a drop in visit or a walk! Your pets safety comes first! So during a meet and greet I will be going over a small list of questions to make sure I can take care of your fur baby to the best of my ability. With this I create a “pet profile” so when you need to rebook with me I’ve already got a reference to look back at. EXAMPLE; if your dog is good with other animals, or if there is a certain amount of food that needs to be given. These are just notes I make for myself, and so you can rest assured your fur baby is getting the best care!
About: I have had several dogs in my family that I have taken care of, including one with reactivity and separation anxiety. I have also been working at the animal shelter for over a year, where I am a mentor. I have worked with several different animals, and many different sized dogs there. Am proficient in walks, enrichment, light training, play groups, and general care. I also enjoy photography and love taking custom pictures of pets! I am currently available all week, with lots of flexibility on time. I prefer to work during the weeks, and in the mornings, but can adapt depending on the pet needs. I have both pet sat at my house and at the owner's house, and am comfortable doing both. If visiting another home, I like to have a throughout understanding of the pet and their needs. I prefer to do long-term sitting at my home, as I have a large yard where they can explore safely.
About: I obviously grew up with dogs and have a very kind heart, especially when it comes to animals. They deserve to be loved and taken care of as much as they take care of us! I am a professional track athlete, and I just recently moved here from Minnesota. My only big time responsibility is training in the morning to mid day. I have lots of availability. I am willing to spend lots of time at your home, to make sure your pet doesn’t feel lonely. Nobody likes to be lonely. And I love walks so I can take your dog on as many walks are you or your pet prefers.
“Tammi is an excellent pet sitter! I will definitely ask her to come again. She was very attentive to Sunny and sent me daily updates while we were away for a long Memorial Day weekend at the beach. I felt very comfortable having Tammi in my home and know Sunny was very well cared for and she left my hone in better condition than when she arrived! Thanks for taking such good care of my dog and our home. I really appreciate all the love and attention for Sunny!”
About: I’ve always been around dogs and understand that every pup has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m an active and responsible caregiver who enjoys spending quality time with dogs, whether that means going for walks, playing, getting some exercise, or simply relaxing together. I’m attentive to the little things that help dogs feel comfortable and happy, including maintaining their normal feeding and walking routines, providing plenty of attention, and making sure they get the care they need while you’re away. I’m also comfortable caring for dogs with different energy levels and personalities and will take the time to learn what works best for your pet. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. I’m currently fully available at all hours and can provide consistent, reliable care whenever you need it. Safety and trust are very important to me when caring for someone’s pet. I treat every dog like they’re my own, making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I’m attentive to their needs, keep a close eye on them, and always follow any instructions you leave for me. In your home, I’ll also be respectful of your space and leave everything just as I found it. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable and confident while your pet is in my care.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mebane
We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Emily. She stayed overnight with Ringo and made visits throughout the day while we were out of state for 10 days, giving us complete peace of mind. Ringo has severe separation anxiety and is especially attached to my wife, so leaving him is never easy. Within minutes of us leaving, Emily sent photos of him playing and cuddling with her, which immediately put us at ease. Throughout our trip, she kept us updated with pictures and messages and was always responded to our texts. We were gone over the Fourth of July and during several severe thunderstorms, both of which terrify Ringo. Emily comforted him through it all and kept us informed on how he was doing. When she stopped by after our trip, Ringo was so excited to see her. That says everything, because he doesn’t warm up to just anyone. It’s obvious she truly loves animals and cared for Ringo like he was her own. She even left our house cleaner than we left it! We highly recommend Emily and will absolutely trust her with Ringo again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Mebane is $42 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $61 per night. 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.

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 Mebane 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 Mebane 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 Mebane 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Mebane. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
