“We are repeat clients of Chrissy, she was amazing as always! I have two large pups and one is my wild child but Chrissy can always handle her with no issue. Chrissy always goes above and beyond to make sure my pups feel loved and I feel at ease when I can’t bring them with me.”
“Love Emerald and so did Harry. She was prompt with times agreed upon. Made time to visit and meet Harry prior to our trip. Left detailed follow ups and photos that allowed us to enjoy our time away.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs all my life, helping out neighbors, friends, and family with walking, feeding, and even the occasional bath. Over the years, I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs, big and small, playful puppies to seniors. I genuinely love spending time with animals and always treat them like part of the family. Whether your pet needs a cuddle buddy or someone to burn off some energy, I’m here to help! Right now, I’m in between graduation and starting my full-time job, so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I’m using this time to do something I truly enjoy—spending time with animals. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine, whether it’s morning walks, afternoon check-ins, or overnight stays. It’s a great way for me to stay active and do something meaningful. I have a spacious apartment with plenty of room for an animal and lots of walking trails nearby to walk around! Just five feet from my home is a dog park where I take pups to run, play, and socialize (with your permission, of course). I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine, crate if needed, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
“My pups and I loved having Micaela stop in and play with them. She genuinely loves taking care of furbabies and went above & beyond my expectations in her communication with me, from the moment we confirmed booking until her last check in. I had never used Rover prior to this weekend and know that I can trust Micaela with my babies in the future. 5 stars, absolutely recommend her.”
About: I have very flexible hours and love taking care of pets with walks and lots of cuddles. I own two dogs and a cat that have very lovely lifestyles. Pet sitting works into my schedule because I am retired, and have a part time job working from home. I am up very early every day and am willing to sit with pets for awhile and also walk them. I care for my own pets daily. I am sure that when I leave a home after a drop in that the area is clean and safe for the pet.
“Alanna did a wonderful job taking care of my kitten while I was away! She kept me updated with lots of details and photos of my cat, which I appreciated so much! I would definitely recommend Alanna and am so thankful for her amazing care and attention to Opal!”
About: I grew up on a farm and have always been an animal lover. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds, cats and small animal care. I have 2 dogs and 1 cat of my own and I know how important it is to have someone you can trust to take care of your fur babies when needed. I also have experience with pet medication schedules, special diets and senior animals. I am a nurse and currently work PRN so I have a lot of flexibility to meet your pets needs. I am a nurse an currently work PRN so I have a lot of flexibility to care for your fur babies. I am an early bird so early morning visits/walks are no problem at all. I am available Monday - Friday and most weekends. My fur babies are my kids and I treat every furry face I meet as if they were my own. I know how important it is to keep a consistent routine for your pets that allow them to feel comfortable and safe. I have experience in medication administration schedules, special diets, exercise routines for any fur babies that may have physical challenges or disadvantages. My goal is to keep your pets safe, comfortable and entertained while you're away to allow you to feel confident that your pets are well cared for in your absence.
“Ann is the best! She is a wonderful communicator, even with some of my last minute chaotic requests! She takes such great care of my cat. I am so thankful for her and trust her whole heartedly!”
About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life and absolutely love caring for them. I prioritize keeping your pet’s daily routine consistent, providing plenty of exercise and affection, and keeping you updated with pictures so you can have complete peace of mind while away. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine. I maintain a full, flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening drop-in visits and walks, giving your pets consistent care right on their normal timeline. When visiting your home, safety and security are my top priorities. I strictly follow all entry, key, and security instructions, keep dogs securely leashed during walks, ensure gates and doors remain locked, and leave your home exactly as I found it.
“Kamrie is awesome with my puppy! She's trustworthy and was able to update me with my puppy with rover cards. Thankful for the extra snuggle and walks she gives for my puppy 🐾”
About: I have had pets my whole life. I have a genuine love for our furry faced friends. Ive been helping friends and family for only about 5-6 years. Since I've had time and space. Myself and my little dog are new to the area and can't wait to meet our neighborhood friends. I'm new to the area and don't currently have employment. My schedule is wide open at the moment. I would really like to remain as active as possible and love to explore outside. I am a dog owner myself. I feel it's important to cater to your pets needs and abilities. If they like to be outside, then we spend time outside. If not, then we don't.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me time and time again to look after their pets (and even their plants), and it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I share my home with my sweet lab mix, Congo, and my newly adopted cat, Mayo, who bring so much joy into my life. I’ve also spent years house‑sitting and pet‑sitting, and my time working in the local restaurant industry has taught me to be dependable, patient, and attentive. I treat every pet with the same love and comfort I give my own! I’m a local college student with a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to give your pets attention, playtime, and consistent care. I follow safe walking practices with secure leash handling and close awareness of my surroundings. I also stick to your dog’s usual training and routine to keep them comfortable.
About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs and cats, including my own pets as well as pet sitting for friends and family. While I’m new to Rover, I’m definitely not new to caring for animals! I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of different personalities and needs, from energetic pets who want lots of playtime and walks to more reserved pets who need patience and time to warm up. I can help with feeding, fresh water, walks, potty breaks, litter boxes, playtime, medications, and other needs that are part of your pet’s normal routine. I understand how important it is to have someone dependable caring for your pets when you can’t be there, and I’ll treat them with the same attention and care I give my own. I work full-time, primarily during evening and nighttime hours, which gives me plenty of daytime availability for pet care! My work schedule varies from week to week, so I often have weekdays and daytime hours available when many pet owners are at work. I keep my Rover calendar updated to reflect my availability and am happy to work with you to find visit or walk times that fit your pet’s normal routine. On my days off, I have even more flexibility for multiple drop-ins, walks, and pets who may need a little extra attention. Feel free to reach out with the dates and times you need—even with my unconventional schedule, I may be available! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priority. I’ll follow their normal routine and your instructions closely, including feeding, medications, walks, and any special needs. I’m careful with doors, gates, and leashes, respectful of your home, and happy to provide updates so you know your pet is safe and well cared for.
“Kristal is the best rover we have ever used! She clearly loves dogs and our faustus and she is detail-oriented responsible dependable! She leaves great photos and makes me feeling that my baby is well taken care of/loved on while I am at work! Thanks again Kristal for everything!”
“Taylor was very communicative and professional at every step of our first pet sitting experience together. Very easy to get in touch with and patient and provided excellent care to both my dog and cat. Would love to have Taylor come by to take care of them again!”
About: I have cared for and owned dogs, along with many other animal/reptile friends for many years. Being involved in 4-H and FFA I have raised a variety of animals. I have two fur kids, Apollo and Astraea, ages 4 and 5 years old who love to eat, play, go hiking and nap. A crested gecko and huge freshwater aquarium call my place home as well. I can make sure your friend gets some extra attention, exercise, and even work on any training or new tricks they are learning. I moved to the area recently and began working from home allowing me some extra time to do this again :). Hope to hear from you soon! Working from home allows a pretty flexible schedule. Just need a days notice to ensure I could stop by if a specific time is needed! I am happy and comfortable assisting your friend based on whatever guidrlines you give! Just let me know what kind of care your friens needs!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Pinehurst
Samantha is absolutely wonderful! From the initial meet and greet, I immediately felt confident that she would be a great fit for our dogs. She was kind, responsive, dependable, and communicated so well throughout our entire trip. I especially appreciated all of the photos, videos, and detailed report cards she sent after each visit. It made such a difference being able to see how our boys were doing and know they were comfortable, happy, and well cared for while we were away. Being able to relax and enjoy our trip without worrying about them was honestly priceless. Samantha was attentive, thoughtful, and clearly took the time to get to know our two dogs rather than just stopping in to check a box. We felt completely comfortable having her care for them and are grateful for her services! We would absolutely use her again in the future. Highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for a quality pet sitter!!
Jackie did such a wonderful job taking care of my dog! She has quite a bit of anxiety, so I really appreciated how patient, gentle, and attentive she was with her. I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in good hands while I was away. She also went out of her way to give my cat some love and attention, even though caring for her wasn’t part of her responsibilities. That meant so much to me. I would absolutely recommend her and will definitely book with her again! ❤️
Campbell took amazing care for our pups, I couldn't have asked for a sweeter, more considerate, understanding, and flexible sitter. She took the time to cater to each of our pets needs individually, and managed a few accidents and messes professionally and perfectly. I highly recommend her for anything you or your babies could need. Thank you Campbell!
Kathryn was amazing with my pup! She went above and beyond not only during her visit but she made the effort to come by and do a meet and greet a few days prior. She took very good care of my pup and home. She kept in communication leading up to, during and after her visit. 10/10 recommend, we will absolutely book her again!
Kristina, was professional, kind, and prompt with all her check ins! She left detailed information after each visit and made sure every animal got attention. She was also kind enough to bring my packages in from the porch while I was away. She had great communication and was wonderful to our animals! Would highly recommend!

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 Pinehurst 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.
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 Pinehurst 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!
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Pinehurst with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
