About: We are a dog family through and through. My husband and I have had dogs our whole lives. Together we have always had a dog as well. Large house with a fenced in back yard. Lots of space to run. We have a large black lab/Shepard mix that requires a lot of exercise so that is a regular thing. We both work full time but will will have weekend open to watch your pets. On the weekends we are up with our dog by 6 AM and would not leave for more than a couple hours at a time. We have a fenced in backyard and a nice area for walking the dogs. We have a 5 year old 100lb lab Shepard mix. He loves other dogs but due to his size and energy other dogs don’t always love him. Would need to do a meet and greet to make sure they would be okay

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since as long as I can remember! I’ve helped train puppies and large dogs. I was a foster to many different types of dogs for two years! I will go the extra mile to care for your animal by playing with them to get them mentally and physically exercised. I love all animals! I am a teacher so I have my summers off! I am available on weekdays and weekends as long as I get a days heads up. I can travel to your house to let the dog out or feed your cat. I have a fenced in yard and no animals or kids. When going to your place, I can bring my own leash and toys if needed. I have my own mode of transportation so traveling back and forth will not be a problem.

About: I grew up with a house full of animals, both dogs and cats and still can’t get enough! I even run my dogs Instagram account and make her custom Christmas cards to send to her furry friends each year. I take animal care very seriously and treat other peoples pets as if they are my own (and mine are spoiled). I am currently dog mom to Douglas my nine year old Great Pyrenees! I have experience with blind and deaf dogs that require special care as well as dogs that need special attention for medications and the like. I have also shadowed therapy dog trainers for a period of time as part of a research project for school! love exercise and playing and can keep up with any breed or energy level I have a high patience level so i'm especially good with senior dogs or dogs with special needs/anxiety issues that require more help with their day to day activities. I am available most days morning, noon, and night. I’ve watched dogs over Christmas vacations both in my home or doing multiple drop ins at their home! I am very safety oriented I would never put someone’s pet in a position I wouldn’t want my pet in. Walks are always in designated areas appropriate for animals and we avoid busy roads and potential risks such as unleaded dogs which may pose a danger.

About: I have always been the one everyone goes to for animal care. Animals are driven to me. And when I come into somebody's home, the animals always sit with me or love up on me. I know how to take care of a variety of animals from dogs, cats, exotic animals, too farm animals. I have started watching pets on my own and have nothing but great reviews. I work for myself and I need a flexible schedule, as my son is autistic. He loves having animals around as well. I am a single mom and I love the fact that I can teach my son the appreciation for animals and what they bring into the home. When I am able to care for your pet in my home, they are able to socialize with my dog is well. He is very active. He is a lab pit mix. He is friendly and never had any issue with any other kind of animals. Your pet will also have more one on one care. When i do check ups at your home I'm only there for a short time and tend to get anxiety from being alone too long.

About: I've always had an unending love for dogs. To me, they are truly God's gift to us, bringing joy, loyalty, and endless companionship. Over the years, I've had the pleasure of caring for many furry friends, ensuring they stay happy and safe while their loved ones are away. My true passion lies in making sure every pup feels loved, secure, and healthy during their time with me. Whether it's a playful romp in the park, a cozy cuddle session, or simply ensuring they have everything they need, my priority is your dog's well-being. It's safe to say that I've earned the title of the "Favorite Fur Aunt" among my clients. There's nothing more rewarding than seeing a wagging tail and knowing I've made a difference in a pet's day. I look forward to meeting your furry family members and providing them with the love and care they deserve while you're away. I am currently attending school online so I have plenty of time to care for your pups! I am available for short-notice bookings, drop-in services as well as care on the weekends. At this time I only offer services in my client's home. I have a small pooch that will come with me if it is permitted, otherwise I will keep him at home or in a separate area. The care I provide your fur babies depends on your specific request but my main goal is to keep them happy and healthy. You will also receive updates with photos and videos.

“Katrina went above and beyond. She took care of our cats with kindness and thoughtfulness throughout our 3 week long trip. She even left my wife and I a sweet honeymoon gift on our counter when we returned home. Her communication and check in were excellent.”

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Pollocksville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 563 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Pollocksville. 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.

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 Pollocksville. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.

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.
