About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. For my neighbors, family and acquaintances. I love animals and will take care of them. I work for a non profit and from home so it is the perfect safe environment for your furry family to not get sad or in any mischief. I live an apartment so your furry friend will be in my apartment and have long walks in our gated apartment complex. I also WFH so they are never truly alone

About: With over 7 years of experience working at an animal shelter, I’ve had the privilege of caring for and walking dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Animals aren’t just pets to me,they’re family. That’s why I treat every furry guest like one of my own, providing them with plenty of love, attention, and top notch care. Why Choose Me? Experience You Can Trust: 7+ years in animal care, handling everything from playful puppies to senior dogs. Home-Style Care: Your pup will never feel lonely! My mom, a stay at home animal lover, assists me, ensuring someone is always home to care for your fur baby. If doing a stay at your home I will make sure to keep your dog entertained with various enrichment activities and always keep them company while making sure the house stays neat and tidy too. Tailored Interaction: I have a friendly and playful dog who loves making new friends! If you prefer your dog not to interact, no worries she’ll stay upstairs to ensure your pup’s comfort. For in home care I already have experience with my own dog since she was a puppy so I will treat yours like they are my own. I am great at following directions and will make sure I follow your fur baby's schedule. I will keep you updated on how they are doing every day they are under my care. Your dog’s happiness and safety are my top priorities. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or just some TLC, I’m here to give your pet the care they deserve. Let’s chat about how I can make your fur baby feel at home! I will be available to work with you any day. If you need week long care I am fully available to take care of your fur babies. We have a fence backyard for potty breaks as much as your fur baby needs. My mom is a stay at home mom so she helps me with the caretaking. They are allowed on the funiture. They will be fed in their normal schedule and we can walk them once a day around our neighborhood lake if needed. If taking care of them at your home, I will make sure they are comfortable and kept company during my whole stay. I will keep you home and their space neat and tidy and will ensure they are entertained and exercised each day of my stay.

About: I've taken care of pets since I can remember. I am meticulous about maintaining spotless litter boxes, keeping feeding stations sanitary, and strictly following your exact schedule to keep your cat completely stress free while you are away. I have a highly flexible daytime schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to your pets. While my evenings are reserved for other commitments, I am completely open throughout the mornings and afternoons for walks, drop ins, and daytime companionship. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize safety, security, and their normal routine. I am meticulous about locking doors, double checking gates, and keeping any hazardous household items out of reach. On walks, I always keep dogs securely leashed and stay highly aware of my surroundings. I treat your home with the utmost respect, leaving it exactly as I found it, while ensuring your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own familiar environment.

About: Hi there! I'm Madison, a biology graduate from Texas A&M University. I have a strong passion for dogs and providing exceptional care. With a deep understanding of animal behavior and health, I create a safe and engaging environment for your furry friends. I'm experienced with different breeds and temperaments, and I'll tailor my care to meet your dog's unique needs. Rest assured, your pet will receive love, attention, and regular updates while you're away. Trustworthy, dependable, and committed to their well-being, I can't wait to meet your four-legged companion! I recently graduated and am job searching for a position in medical device sales. I am currently unemployed so I have plenty of time to provide the best care to your fur babies! During overnight visits, I will provide a comfortable and nurturing environment for your dog. I understand that each dog has unique needs, so I will maintain their regular routines as closely as possible. This includes feeding them according to their usual schedule, ensuring they have fresh water, and administering any necessary medication. I will also spend quality time engaging them in play sessions, going for walks, and providing plenty of love and attention. Additionally, I will make sure they have a cozy sleeping space and maintain a secure and safe environment throughout the night. For drop-in visits, I will prioritize the well-being and happiness of your dog. I will check in on them at the scheduled times and provide necessary care. This may include feeding them, refreshing their water bowl, taking them for a short walk, or engaging in playtime. I will also ensure that their surroundings are tidy and clean up any messes that may occur. Communication is important, so I will keep you updated with messages and pictures during each visit, giving you peace of mind while you're away. Both during overnight stays and drop-ins, I will be attentive to your dog's needs, maintaining a high level of responsibility and care. Your furry friend's comfort and happiness are my top priorities, and I will go the extra mile to make sure they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for throughout our time together.

“Sage is such a gift! Over our extended absence (3+ weeks), Sage was responsive to Grace’s needs, using her impressive decision making skills demonstrative of her wide knowledge base. She took excellent care of our home and completed routine tasks to ensure our home was secure during our absence and more pleasant than we left it upon our return. The best accolades I can offer about Sage came from Grace herself. She is an old Russian Blue with a history of kidney problems. She also has a tendency to anxiously lick her body and develop irritated areas on her abdomen. She also is prone to dander. Sage clearly took pristine care of her, brushing and supplementing diet as needed without direction, as Grace looked and behaved absolutely beautifully upon our return. I would hire Sage to care for my sweet Grace without reservation again. I strongly recommend Sage due to her innate gift with animals. She is also adaptable and innovative and has the confidence to do what is best without direct instruction. Finally her responsiveness and reliability were reassuring. I recommend Sage without and reservation! You will be lucky to have her skilled help!”

About: My family has always had pets: cats, dogs, and a variety of others! I adopted my first dog, Monty, as an adult in 2016. He was my whole heart and soul, and I would not be the person I am without him. I adopted him off the euthanasia list at an estimated 9 yrs old with heartworms. I knew it would take some TLC to unlock his sweet goofy side. I learned very quickly (day 2!) that his unknown past left him with severe destructive separation anxiety and elopement tendencies (if he couldn't jump/climb over a fence, he went through it)! We tried medication, specialized training with a behaviorist, and crate training, but he could not be contained or soothed unless his momma was nearby. I found a reputable cage-free doggy daycare that accommodated his needs and kept him safe during the day. For the last 5 years, I have worked part time at that facility, learning and implementing rhe art of introducing dogs to each other, observing their behavior to determine temperament, handled reactive dogs, broken up the occasional fight, captured the occasional escapee, bathed them, dried them with a high velocity dryer, clipped their nails, coaxed them into eating with calm body language and words of affirmation, administered oral/topical/injected medication as prescribed - you name it, I've probably done it. If I haven't done it, I'm willing to learn! At your pace and, most importantly, at your pet's pace! Additionally, I've fostered and found homes for several dogs, whelped and weaned foster puppies, researched and participated in obedience training, reinforced skills as needed, among many other necessary tasks. Again, you name it and I'm willing to learn! As stated above, I work part-time at a daycare/boarding/grooming facility, typically 1pm-7pm on weekends and usually one or two weekdays. My personal pet (a feisty corgi named Bailey) is completely house-broken and well-socialized. I live in an apartment with a fenced off-leash dog park. I take my corgi to the fenced area for potty and play time. We also usually walk the complex twice per day. I love going to bigger public dog parks at cooler times of day. I typically feed on a schedule and can adjust if needed. My dog is toy possessive so she does not have unsupervised access to toys when other dogs are in my home. I typically separate dogs from each other when I leave and during feeding times for safety reasons. I do have a medium crate (corgi-sized), and I have space for a bigger crate if you'd like your dog to be crated (and don't mind me borrowing it for the duration of your pet's stay)!

I'm currently fully available through the upcoming season. And I am free to care for your pets through the holidays. I take health very seriously, and will prioritize medical treatments and diets.

I am not a stranger to energetic dogs and can play with them as long as needed. Their happiness is my priority.

About: My name is Maria and I live in a dog friendly apartment complex close to the University of Texas at San Antonio. My apartment is on the 3rd floor with a fully gated porch. My apartment has one bedroom and they can sleep with me if they prefer. Due to the size of my apartment I am only available to host small and medium sized dogs. I grew up with dogs and have had a beagle, Maltese, poodle, and retriever over my lifetime, all of which were family dogs. I currently do not have a dog, and prefer to only host one at a time (unless you have two, I'd be happy to host them together to avoid separation). I am currently a senior at UTSA and I'm studying Early Childhood Education and work within 5 minutes of my apartment. As I usually go home for lunches, I would be happy to give your dog a mid afternoon walk during that time in addition to an evening or morning walk- or all of the above!

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I’ve taken care of private commercial kennels and helped with training “challenging” dogs. I enjoy getting to know their different personalities and adjust my care accordingly. Have yet to train any of my fur babies how to make coffee, but I’ll persist! I’m retired so my schedule is very flexible. I can be available for just one day or whatever the family needs. It’s my pleasure to serve. I will stay with your dog/s the entire booking. They will be my number one priority. It’s best when they can stay in their home.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I shared my life with a Cavalier named Bengy, who was our family companion for 10 wonderful years. After he passed, I knew I wanted to continue building meaningful connections with pets. I also have three cats of my own, so I understand the care, attention, and patience both dogs and cats need. Over the years, more than 50+ families have trusted me to care for their pets and homes, including overnight stays. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities—including pets with special needs. I’m experienced in giving medication, including pills hidden in treats or pill pockets, and making sure pets feel comfortable while taking them. I’m also happy to help with light cleaning or household care during visits. I have a flexible schedule, and I’m very active—I go to the gym every day, so I have plenty of energy to get dogs moving and keep them engaged on walks or playtime. I offer Dog Walking, Drop-In visits, and overnight pet sitting with attentiveness, patience, and lots of love. Safety is my top priority—I’m mindful of gates, doors, other pets, and any routines that help your pets feel comfortable. I truly love building bonds with pets and getting to know their unique personalities. Nothing makes me happier than seeing a happy, relaxed pup or a content cat while their family is away. I look forward to meeting your furry friends and giving them the care, attention, and energy they deserve! I’m currently unemployed and doing freelance work as a caregiver to both children and pets! I have a very flexible and open schedule and ready to assist as needed. Safety is my top priority. I hold myself to a bar in providing the safest care your animal can receive. I have an understanding of gates, animal behavior, and dangers that can be presented to your animal. Your animal is in safe hands!

About: Other than loving others animals as my own, l've had experience with many types of breeds, temperaments, ages, and personalities. Having experience with two German Shepards in my life, they have taught me the importance of training and regime. As a care taker I will always do my best to ensure that their schedules are well maintained. Whether it is a walk, going potty, 30-1hr of playing and enrichment, eating, receiving medicine, etc. I will do my best to ensure your fluffy friends feel safe and comfortable in their environment. Throughout the week I am typically available 9am-3pm (M,Tues,Thurs) weekends depending on work trips I am available 10am-8:30pm (Fri,Sat). I am also married so if we are boarding, my husband will be home as a helping hand! I have a fully fended and fairly big yard, plenty of room for a crate if needed, and willing to provide any extra accommodations for boarding. If I am visiting your home, I will respect your home as mind and be mindful to go above and beyond to meet your expectations whether I am caring for your dogs, cats, fish, birds, etc!

About: I’m an animal lover with 6 years of experience caring for pets and houses for friends and family. I understand that your pets are more than just animals—they’re part of your family, and I treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I’m comfortable caring for dogs, cats, and other unique pets, including providing meals, fresh water, walks, playtime, companionship, medication, and plenty of cuddles. I’m also happy to maintain your pet’s normal routine while you’re away so they can feel safe and comfortable in their own home. When house sitting, I’m respectful of your space and can help keep your home tidy and secure while you’re away. I’m happy to bring in mail, water plants, take out trash, and make sure everything is cared for! I work at barksuds in Tomball, Texas From 8am to 3:30-4:30pm from Tuesday to Saturday. Because of my work schedule I can only do a maximum of 2 visits per day (early morning and evening) for your pets but im happy to spend an hour loving on them and taking care of their needs while your away! I provide high quality service that emphasizes the pet’s safety, comfort, emotional well-being, routine, and overall care while the owner is away. What my high-quality pet care service involves • Understanding each pet individually: Every animal has a different personality, routine, comfort level, and set of needs. I take time to learn the pet’s habits, likes and dislikes, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and behaviors rather than providing one-size-fits-all care. • Maintaining their normal routine: Pets generally feel more secure when their familiar routine is maintained. This includes feeding them at their usual times, refreshing their water, cleaning litter boxes or potty areas, providing walks or playtime, and maintaining their normal sleeping and daily schedule. • Providing companionship and attention: my quality care includes genuine interaction. Depending on the pet, that may mean playing, brushing, walking, giving affection, talking to them, or simply sitting with them. For pets that experience separation anxiety, calm companionship can be especially important. • Keeping the pet safe: As your pet’s sitter I prioritize creating a secure environment and preventing situations that could put the animal at risk. This includes checking doors and gates, being mindful of hazards, monitoring interactions with other animals, and following the owner's specific safety instructions. • Observing behavior and health: As your pet sitter I pay attention and inform you about any changes in appetite, drinking, bathroom habits, energy level, mood, mobility, or behavior. Recognizing that something is different can be extremely important to your pets health and well-being. • I ensure all care instructions are completed with qualityand care regarding food, treats, medications, exercise, allergies, behavioral concerns, or special routines. • Keeping your pet's environment clean is top priority! This includes cleaning litter boxes, picking up waste in the yard, washing food and water bowls, cleaning accidents, and keeping the areas where the pet spends time comfortable and sanitary. • Providing enrichment Pets need mental stimulation as well as basic physical care. Toys, interactive play, walks, scent exploration, routine exercises, and age-appropriate activities can help prevent boredom and reduce stress. • Respecting the owner's home I ensure to treat my client's home with respect and professionalism. This means being responsible with keys and access, keeping the home secure, cleaning up after the pet, and leaving the home in good condition. • I prioritize communicating consistently providing you with reassurance that your pets are safe and doing well. A high-quality and meaningful updates about your pets day and, photos or video updates. Communication is open and honest—if something unexpected happens. My high quality services ensure and prioritize that your pet is treated with patience, compassion, responsibility, and genuine care—not simply being checked on!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Pinehurst

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 $17 and $22 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 3,797 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.

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

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 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.
