About: Hi!! I’m basically your dog’s dream sitter 🤩✨🤍 I’m super active and love getting outside wheter its running, walking, or hiking. If your dog has energy to burn, I’m your girl. I’ll happily take them on long walks or even runs (yes, your pup might come back more fit than when you left them 😌). I’m also big on balance, so if your dog is more of a “lay in the sun and vibe” type, I’m just as happy giving them all the love, attention, and chill time they want. I’m responsible, reliable, and genuinely love animals, so I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own. You’ll get lots of updates, cute pictures, and peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I’d love to get to know your pet and make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away 💛 Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my everyday life! I build my schedule around the needs of the pets I care for whether it's morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays. I'm an active person who loves being outdoors, so daily walks and playtime are something I genuinely enjoy. Because I’m organized and dependable, I’m able to give each pet the time, attention, and consistency they need. Whether it's early morning potty breaks, lunchtime cuddles, or evening strolls, I make sure your pet feels loved and cared for as part of my regular routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their regular routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I follow your instructions closely whether that’s feeding schedules, walk times, playtime routines, or administering medications. I always make sure they have fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of love and attention.

Jennifer has done drop ins for my cats during two periods of time for me now. She is very thoughtful with the updates she leaves me on the report cards and makes sure I know my girls are safe and well taken care of. I also love when she brings her kids along to give my social butterfly of a cat a little extra attention! I will definitely continue booking with Jennifer.

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: My background spans everything from energetic puppies to sweet seniors. I do not just monitor pets, I actively engage them. I focus on positive reinforcement, structure, and maintaining your exact home routine. Owners trust me because I treat their pets like my own. You will receive consistent updates, clear communication, and total peace of mind while you are away. Because I work from home, your pet receives my full attention. My flexible routine ensures consistent neighborhood walks, frequent potty breaks, and dedicated companionship all day long. Whether you need overnight boarding, interactive playdates, daily walking, or quick potty breaks, I easily accommodate your schedule. I offer a safe home environment with one friendly dog for constant companionship. Our routine includes daily leashed neighborhood walks and optional off-leash socialization trips to Martin Dog Park. I also provide secure crating at night for a safe, restful sleep.

About: When I was a baby I had a dog making sure I didn’t fall over, and I have grown up with dogs ever since. My family currently has a golden retriever and a Bernese mountain dog that I only get to see over winter and summer break. And I have experience with puppies (and their shark teeth) as young as 10 weeks old. I am a recent graduate who is working part time as a delivery driver from 3 to 8 on Wednesday Thursday and Friday, so I have plenty of free time to look after your pups and take them on walks! Otherwise, I am a volunteer coach for the Bloomsburg Men’s soccer team from 8 am to 10 am a couple days a week. I have plenty of experience when it comes to letting dogs out and taking care of them. I am the youngest of 3 kids and was the only one home over CoVid with my families two dogs and took care of them. I have a vehicle so I am able to travel to your house to play with and take care of your furry child!

About: I have a Mini Aussie Doodle and he is my best friend! I take him for walks daily if it’s not too hot. I keep his mind engaged with play and I keep him on a good regular feeding schedule. I am very flexible and will most likely be available any day you need me. Watching and playing with pups is a big hobby of mine! I will follow client’s directions, they know their fur baby best!! I will follow the set pattern they have for feeding, walking, and play time.

Kelly was really sensitive to my sweet, shy boy. There wasn’t time for a meet and great so Cedar met her for the first time when she came to care for him. She gave him lots of time to adjust to her and he was able to sit on the couch with her before she left.

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!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Pinehurst

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of June 2026, there are 899 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Pinehurst. 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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Pinehurst. On Rover:

  • 98% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.

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.
