“Jasmine took such good care of our two cats! She was referred to us when we learned about a last-minute trip we needed to take over the weekend, and we were so glad that Jasmine was available to cat sit in our home while we were away. The kitties seemed as happy as always when we returned, so we know Jasmine took great care of them, including food, play, and outside time. Jasmine also checked-in with us when she had questions, and we were so glad for that. Thank you, Jasmine!”
“Meagan was wonderful! She took great care of our cats and was even able to pet our outside cat. He usually very skittish but did great with Meagan. Meagan was very communicative and kept us in the loop the entire time we were gone. She was respectful of our home and took care of it nicely, as well. We look forward to having Meagan sit for us again. We highly recommend Meagan!”
“My Bandit loves Aiden! He is great with dogs and so dependable. After staying with my dog for 10 days, he left the house in perfect condition. I will use him often and highly recommend him.”
“We will definitely have Zoe back! She is super sweet and took such good care of our dogs, including our 15 year old that requires a little more attention. She communicated with me super well and took great care of our home”
“This is my second time using Sherry. As soon as she got to my house all of my babies were so excited and happy to see her. They absolutely love her!! She obviously treats them very well and sounds like she spoils them. I highly recommend her”
About: I have had dogs since I was born and I've been pet sitting since high school when neighbors and family friends needed someone. I've taken care of young and energetic puppies, dogs with medical needs, big dogs, small dogs, and everything in between. I have experience providing potty walks and playtime as well as overnight sitting for 1-2 dogs at a time. I have a special love for dogs and I look forward to being your dog's new best friend! I currently work 1-2 days at a pickleball club and am an online MBA student. I am available to take care of pups on weekdays and weekends at all times of the day! I will follow what the dog is used to for their health, safety, and trust. I can walk dogs on a leash or let them outside without one. Inside the house, I will do as the owner says for spaces the dog is able to be or in a crate. If the dog is seeming uncomfortable or unsafe at any point, I will contact the owner.
About: I have seven years of experience caring for puppies and adult dogs, and I truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and needs. I’m comfortable with everything from playful puppies to older dogs who prefer a slower pace. I provide patient, attentive, and loving care while making sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Since I work part-time, I have plenty of flexibility in my daily schedule to give dogs the attention, exercise, and care they need. I’m available most days and can easily fit pet care into my routine. The only exception is Tuesdays and Thursdays, when I’m available before 5 PM. I’m happy to work with your schedule and make sure your pet gets consistent, reliable care. When caring for dogs in your home, I focus on keeping them comfortable and maintaining their normal routine. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and any other care they’re used to. I’ll give them plenty of attention and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll also treat your home with the same respect and care I would my own.
“Sandra did an outstanding job caring for Billy and Buddy. She brought homemade treats for them, kept in regular communication (with pictures) with me and left the house in great condition. She went out of her way to assist with things like watering our plants and cleaning our refrigerator shelves (which was a complete and welcome surprise). She is a delightful person and I will definitely book with her again.”
About: I have been trusted to watch several of my neighbors, family friends, and even teachers houses and pets. Playing, walking, and taking care of animals is one of my passions and I adapt to every personality and type of dog to make sure they are happy. I work minimal hours away from home so I will be there for most of the day every day. I work part time (usually from 4-7:30) so I will be home with your pets very frequently! On top of that, I also have full availability on weekends. I am able to walk, play, cuddle, and do anything that your pets enjoy! I am adaptable to each animal and take care of them in ways that creates a stress free, happy environment for them.
“Terra was great and took such good care of my cat while I was away. She sent frequent daily updates with pictures which was so appreciated. I will definitely contact Terra for a future stay!”
About: As a dedicated animal lover, I bring real pet-owner experience to every visit. I currently have a dog and have previously cared for cats and bunnies, so I'm comfortable with pets of all kinds. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family members, and I strive to make every pet feel loved, safe, and cared for."🐾💕 I am available early mornings for feedings, exercise, and check ins, as well as midday visits and walks, making sure your pet is comfortable and loved through the day. My fur baby is created when unattended and has a doggy park to run around unleashed in the apartment complex. Always leashed walks around the neighborhood, complex, and parks.
“Kathleen was more than we could have asked for! She really took the time to get to know our anxious puppy and by the time we went on our trip, our dog Honey was comfortable to hang out with her. She is a great communicator and let us know that Honey was doing fine so we could relax and enjoy our vacation. We will definitely be booking her again next time we go out of town!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Pinehurst
Emma was absolutely fabulous with our four dogs! Having four pups can definitely be a handful, but she handled them wonderfully and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She was fantastic about keeping us updated, sending lots of pictures, and letting us know how everyone was doing. It was so reassuring to see our dogs happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We could tell Emma genuinely cared about them and took great care of our crew. We would absolutely recommend her and would not hesitate to book with her again. Thank you so much, Emma! 🐾❤️

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Pinehurst walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Pinehurst maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
