About: I’ve loved animals since I was small, but am too queasy for the veterinary career. My life has thrown me multiple curveballs in the last few years, and I want to assist other people when life throws them curveballs!! I work full time in hospitality, with a varying schedule but am flexible!! I want to provide whatever services you need for whenever life happens! I will care for your babies in whatever way they need!! Whether that be varying personalities, just needing someone to hang out with them, or monitor their conditions and contacting vets if needed
About: I have worked with cats and dogs for more than half of my 21 years of life, and I will say living without them might be the worst thing I've ever had to endure. I have great experience working with cats and dogs. Mostly with my very own! I have two cats and two dogs, Bella Beauty is the oldest at 14 human years old, definitely the sassyest of the bunch!! She is very versed in tricks and polite despite her sass! Basil Bay is my second dog and is only a year old, she is thirty five pounds and a big bundle of energy!! She's our sweet girl and loves to play and cuddle up on the couch, she also absolutely adores food!! Twilight Sparkle is my childhood Cat and is quite spoiled with food at her disposal, making her a chunk of pure love! she loves to be pet all over,, even on her tummy! She is also versed in a few tricks like shake, sit, and up! Sunrise Rae, (Kiki) is my other kitty who is very much the independent one of the bunch, she is 12 years old and very shy compared to Twilight, she loves to go outside and climb trees, chase Basil around,(and vis versa) play with cat toys, and sunbathe in the afternoons. I have experience walking, some grooming, feeding , playing With, and cuddling dogs and cat. I have a cleaning job I do two to three days a week, and I was looking to fill the gaps in between with caring for pets! In my home we have an invisible fence for our dogs and an automatic doggy door so the dogs can go outside anytime they need! Kiki also likes to use the door for herself! In my location, I have a small, wooden fenced in area of the yard, but the bigger area is not physically fenced in, so I would take your pet out on a leash to use the potty outside!
“Jesse was great and took the best care of our cats. She of course fed them and cleaned the litter boxes but she also made sure to sit, play, and chat to the kitties as well. They barely missed me when I got home so I know they had great company. Thank you Jesse!”

“Haydyn was awesome with our 2 cats, this only being their 2nd night ever without us here constantly. She gave them the companionship they needed most, & with her patience and persistence with them, they warmed up to her quickly! She took time to get them to play, their favorite thing. She kept usbup to date so se had great time without worrying about them. We will definitely be calling on Haydyn again!”
“This was our first time finding a sitter outside of family & friends and Chasydi did her best with our territorial dog. She was very communicative and tried her best to get our dog comfortable with her even though he was very anxious and not welcoming lol. She even went above and beyond with her own food & treats. We will definitely continue to book with her and hope our dog continues to get more comfortable with her.”
About: I have been a dog lover my entire life and have cared for dogs since I was about 10 years old.

I am available to walk or drop in on your dog during the day on weekdays! The hours would be between 9-12:30 Monday through Thursday. We currently have a chocolate lab who is 8 years old and is such a sweetheart. She loves to play fetch in our backyard and go on walks with the family.

About: I treat every dog in my care like my own. As a small business owner, I know how much reliability matters.

Senior dogs: I'm comfortable with slower walks, giving medications, and extra attention.

In my home (boarding/daycare): Your dog gets a calm, safe space with [a fenced yard / a cozy spot to rest]. I keep them on their normal feeding, walk, and bedtime schedule, and they're never left alone for long. [I only take one family's dogs at a time so every pup gets my full attention.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Pinehurst
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! ❤️
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Pinehurst is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $34 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 855 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Pinehurst. 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.
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 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.
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 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.
