“Gwen has been amazing and such a help with our cats as we transition new jobs. She’s able to help us out last minute, is excellent with communication, and just truly goes above and beyond what is expected. I cannot recommend enough her to anyone who needs help with their fur babies!”

About: Ever since I was little, I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs and cats for family and friends. From the most energetic puppies to anxious rescues, I am very experienced in pet care, and will ensure your furry friends receive all the love and attention they deserve while you’re away! I am currently taking a break from school, making me available all throughout the week to help with anything you need—including walks, check-ins, and house sitting. I cannot care for your pets in my home because my dog gets very anxious around other unfamiliar animals. However, I can definitely stay in your home where your pets feel the most comfortable, & will take care of them exactly as you would like!
“Cheryl is amazing! Our dog Marley absolutely loves her and the pictures we get from Cheryl prove that. Marley is always so happy and smiling when they are together! Cheryl is very communicative, kind, trustworthy, and accommodating to our needs. She has been so helpful in watching our pup and we appreciate her so much!”

“Morgan has taken great care of our 2 boxers! She leaves very detailed descriptions of the visit and includes lots of pictures of them when they’re in her care letting us know they are doing just fine! Morgan is always my #1 pick when I need a sitter!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was old enough to stay home alone as a young teen! Growing up, we always had two or three dogs in the house, along with the occasional indoor and outdoor cat. I also grew up around horses and have experience caring for a variety of animals, including some other farm animals. Honestly, chickens scare me the most, but I am up for the challenge! If you’re looking for care beyond dogs and cats, feel free to reach out, and we can discuss your needs! I also work from home a few days each week, which allows me to give pets extra attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I currently work full time, but I work from home on Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays, which allows me to spend extra time with your pet throughout the day. On Tuesdays and Wednesdays, I’m available before and after work, meaning your pet would typically only be alone for about eight hours during the workday. I’m also available most weekends and can provide frequent potty breaks and check-ins throughout the day. At this time, I’m only offering care in clients’ homes so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I do my best to make pets feel safe, cared for, and loved while their owners are away by sticking closely to their normal schedule for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and cuddles. I understand every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I adjust my care based on their needs and energy level. I also make sure owners stay updated with regular photos and messages for peace of mind while they’re away.
“We had a last minute day trip planned and Jaclyn was prompt at responding to all messages and made me feel comfortable. She came on time and my dogs seemed to really like her! She went outside with them during their potty break, and sent pictures. I will book again. THANKS!”

“We had such a wonderful experience with our pet sitter! She was absolutely amazing with our elderly cat and took such thoughtful, loving care of her while we were away. She was incredibly kind, caring, and patient, and it was obvious that she genuinely cared about our cat and wanted her to feel comfortable and loved. Knowing our cat was in such good hands gave us so much peace of mind. She went above and beyond to make sure she was well cared for, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We are so grateful and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and wonderful with pets!”
About: I have loved, raised, and responsibly cared for dogs for over 30 years. I also served as a dog trainer and K-9 officer in the United States Marine Corps. I work from home, being attentive, providing loving care is very important to me. With someone always present, I am able to provide companionship, supervision, and a calm, comfortable environment where pets feel safe and cared for. Our home features a secure fenced yard with ample room for exercise, a well-socialized dog and cat, and crate accommodations for overnight stays. Dogs that enjoy water can also benefit from supervised pool time for low-impact exercise and enrichment.
“Mercedes did an excellent job taking care of our two dogs. She was able to accommodate the times we needed her to come to the house, which was so helpful. I would book with Mercedes again!”

“Sarah did a wonderful job keeping our pup company while we were out with family. She took several photos and did a great job of letting us know how the visit went. We will definitely be booking her again in the future! 😊”


About: I have been raising my own puppy, Vader (black lab), since April 2025 which has taught me both how to handle an energetic dog and what their body language means. I also grew up with two labs at home my entire childhood. I am an EMT and current medical student at MU-WCOM in Indianapolis, so I can assure you that I am fully equipped to follow any strict medical or dietary restrictions your dog may have or handle possible high-stress situations. I am training for an Ironman triathlon as well, so if your dog likes to go on runs (or look like they need to start😉), look no further as I’d love to have a buddy join me. I am generally unavailable on Mondays and Tuesdays, as I have my OMM and clinical anatomy labs on those days. I have lecture Monday-Friday from 8 AM-noon, but after that I would be happy to stop by for your pet! Weekends are completely open for me, however there may be weekends I need to study a lot more than others, so as long as we work out a relative plan in advance there shouldn’t be a problem. I would be glad to let your dog(s) out to use the restroom, play, go for walks/runs, and anything else they may need while you’re away for an extended period of time. Just let me know what their usual schedule is and how you’ve trained them so I know what to expect.
“Lori did a wonderful job with Cocoa! Cocoa is usually quite reserved, but I could tell from the daily photos that she warmed up to Lori quickly and loved their playtime together. It put me at such ease knowing she was in great hands every day. Highly recommend!”

“Beth came 3 times a day to check on Katrina. She would feed her once a day, but more importantly, she sat with her and let her know she was not abandoned. Beth kept me advised what Katrina did and how she responded.”

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring animal lover who truly enjoys spending time with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, playtime, or a calm and attentive sitter while you're away, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. **I also offer yard freedom for all my K9 friends, as our home sits on EIGHT ACRES, a sought after haven for those high energy babies who love to get their zoomies in!** I understand that every dog is unique, so I always take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and energy levels. From energetic walks and games to relaxed companionship, I tailor my care to what your dog needs most. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. You can expect regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you always know how your furry friend is doing. I treat every dog like they’re my own and work hard to build trust with both pets and their owners. I’d love the chance to meet you and your dog and help make their days happier while you’re busy or away! I am a SAHM, so caring for dogs and cats can easily be built into my schedule! My little one loves animals, so taking him along or introducing him to someone new is always exciting, he also enjoys playing with them! We do love backpacking on trails, so there is no limit to the care and fun I can provide. I provide safe, attentive, and loving care whether pets are staying in my home or I’m caring for them in their own home. Since I have animals of my own, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and I treat every animal like part of the family. For **boarding in my home**, I create a calm and comfortable environment where pets can relax, play, and follow a routine similar to what they’re used to. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, bathroom breaks, and a safe space to rest. For **house sitting in a client’s home**, I focus on keeping pets comfortable by sticking closely to their normal routine—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care they need. I also help keep the home tidy and make sure pets feel secure while their owner is away. For **dog walking**, I make sure each walk is safe, fun, and suited to the dog’s energy level. Whether your dog enjoys a brisk walk or a slower sniff-and-explore pace, I tailor the walk to their needs. For **drop-in visits**, I stop by to feed pets, refresh water, clean litter boxes or potty areas, provide playtime, and make sure they get plenty of attention and care. No matter the service, I always prioritize safety, clear communication, and keeping owners updated with messages and photos so they know their pets are happy and well cared for.
“Noah took great care of our two cats and was incredibly helpful when our trip got extended. He stayed flexible, kept a positive attitude, and handled everything with professionalism. We came home to happy, well-cared-for cats and truly appreciated his support. Highly recommend!”


About: Hi! I’m Elizabeth, a Brownsburg resident, lifelong animal lover, and experienced caregiver. My background includes years of experience caring for animals through 4-H, including dogs, horses, and livestock, as well as caring for pets in home settings. I’ve worked with animals of different sizes, temperaments, and care needs, and understand the importance of consistency, patience, and attention to detail. My experience extends beyond household pets and includes dogs, horses, and livestock through years of 4-H participation and hands-on animal care. Professionally, I’ve worked in education, healthcare leadership, and caregiving roles where trust, responsibility, communication, and safety were essential every day. Those same qualities guide how I care for your pets and your home. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, sticking to a routine, or simply having someone nearby while you’re away, I tailor my care to meet their individual needs. I understand that every pet is different—and every pet is family. When you book with me, you can expect reliable communication, regular photo updates, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing your pets are being cared for by someone with both animal-care and professional caregiving experience. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable visits, feedings, playtime, litter box care, and companionship throughout the day. I prioritize keeping pets on their normal routines and provide regular updates so owners know their cats are happy, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re away. I primarily provide care in my clients’ homes, where pets are most comfortable and able to maintain their normal routines. I follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any other care preferences provided by the owner. My goal is to keep pets happy, comfortable, and stress-free while their family is away. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are well cared for. I treat every home with respect and every pet like family. While I primarily care for pets in their own homes, I may consider select services in my home on a case-by-case basis. My focus is always on providing a safe, comfortable, and personalized experience for each pet.
About: I have grown up mainly with dogs my entire life, but I have loved barn kitties and my friend’s cats like my own. I am experienced in training my own dogs, from basic orders to fun tricks. I am happy to handle dogs which are large or small, timid or energetic, etc. I have experience pet sitting both cats and dogs for friends and walking other peoples’ dogs, but I have less than a year of experience using a platform like this one. I truly love working with animals and I am ready to serve your pets to the best of my ability! I am a college student who is home for the summer and I would love to be able to fill my summertime with taking care of animals. Therefore, I am available to walk or pet sit any time of the week! When pet sitting in a client’s home, I am intentional when making sure that the pets feel safe and taken care of. I am willing to work with any quirks your pets may offer with the help of information beforehand from the client, but I can also be flexible. My main goal when pet sitting is to make sure that the animal feels safe with me and that they do not feel as though their routine is turned upside down by me.

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 Pittsboro 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Pittsboro. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
