About: Hi! I’m Nia, a lifelong dog lover based in the 27030 area. I’ve had dogs my entire life and currently have two of my own: Indi, my 2.5-year-old Chihuahua/Italian Greyhound mix, and Bear, my 6-month-old Poodle. Because I travel myself, I truly understand how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else. That’s why I focus on communication, safety, and making sure both you and your dog feel completely comfortable. I’m experienced with puppies, small breeds, high-energy dogs, and slower senior dogs. Whether your pup prefers a relaxed stroll, a jog to burn off energy, or a day at the park, I’m happy to match their pace and personality. I can work on keeping up with basic commands and training but I am not certified in any dog training. If you’re interested, I can also safely introduce your dog to Indi and Bear for socialization, only with your permission and after making sure it’s a good fit. Safety is always my priority. I carefully check harnesses and leashes, follow all feeding and water instructions, and stick closely to your dog’s normal routine. I treat every dog like they’re my own. I have very open availability, including weekdays, weekends, holidays, and last-minute bookings and I’d love to meet you and your pup! 🐶🐾 Pet care is already a big part of my daily life since I have two dogs of my own, Indi and Bear. I plan my days around walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and outdoor time, so adding additional pets into my routine feels natural and easy. I have open availability, including weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and I’m flexible with mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Because I’m used to a consistent routine, I’m dependable and organized when it comes to providing reliable care. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, and preferred walking routes. I double-check harnesses, collars, and leashes before walks and monitor pets closely at all times. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, clean, and structured environment with plenty of supervised playtime and rest. Any introductions to my dogs are done slowly and only with owner permission. I pay close attention to body language and energy levels to ensure every pet feels safe and secure. However, most of the time I will provide sitting in clients home and dog walking outside.
“Emory was so great with our dogs while we went on vacation! She sent pictures and updates with every visit! She even cleaned up an accident that happened in the house. She was very detailed in her visits and reports. She made my first experience with using Rover a great one! We hope to book her again in the future!”
“Heather is a great sitter that cares about every detail! We had no concerns or worries leaving our Oakley (cat) in Heather’s care! She kept us informed on every visit, including pictures! She also has a great personality and loves what she does! Highly recommend!!”
“Katie is very good with my dog and puppy. She is very kind and easy to work with. I’ve only just started using Katie but I know my fur babies are in good hands with her. I definitely recommend her!”
“I’m so happy to have met Kat! She came to meet Remmi, our 125lb English/Italian mastiff before watching her for the first time. I feel it is important for everyone to feel comfortable in a house and dog sitting situation-not only Remmi and I, but Kat as well! I immediately felt comfortable and confident with Kat taking care of our sweet pup and home while out of town. We used Kat again soon after the first time..a VERY last minute trip. Kat responded right away and agreed to help us out-she’s wonderful! I could go on and on-she is a perfect fit for our mastiff and mainecoon kitty!”

About: I have a degree in animal science so I know lots about all sorts of animals, i love all animals with a passion. I’m a dog mom of 3! Currently working Wednesday from 2-5 and Friday 6-12. So the rest of the week I can play and walk your pups 🐶!! I’m super flexible with my schedule. I have three pups of my own and two acres of land for them to run and play, I do prefer to do walks or in home check ins on others animals though! One of my pups gets anxious around others sometimes. But he’s not aggressive.
About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life and know how much they mean to their families. I’ll give your dog plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. I work from home, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m available throughout the day for walks, playtime, meals, and plenty of attention. Your dog will have company and care while you’re away. Safety is my first priority when caring for pets in my home. I follow each owner’s instructions for meals, medication, and routines, and I keep a close eye on pets throughout the day. Since I have a dog of my own, introductions are gradual and supervised, and I make sure every pet has a comfortable space to relax.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mount Airy
Katie was great!!!! She went above and beyond to make sure that our babies were taken care of while we were out of town. It was the 1st time that we had left our puppy, she took great care of him. Our older dog, that does is weary around new people, took to her right away. I will absolutely be using her again!
Lindsey watched my three kitties over a long weekend. She checked in with me before hand to see where I kept all their supplies and what to feed them and met them. She’s reliable and conscientious and made sure I had photos each day. She took very good care of my girls and I couldn’t be happier with her service.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Mount Airy is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $29 per visit. 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.
As of November 2026, there are 244 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Mount Airy. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Mount Airy. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
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.
