Natalie was amazing with our girls! She spent a lot of time with them and when I returned our house was cleaner than when I left. I’m so glad I found Natalie and we will be using her for all future bookings!

Melissa is AMAZING. She stayed at our place for a week with our german shepherd puppy and made a friend for life with him. She gave him all the snuggles, play time and treats that he could ever want and sent us daily updates with the cutest pics. She is great with big dogs, always quick to respond and super friendly, we will definitely book with her again!!! Your pup will love her!

Kaitlyn was amazing. She was with my babies for 5 days. She took amazing care of them. They get anxiety when I'm not home so they don't really eat but she did really great on keeping me up to date if they did eat. She is very responsive and I felt very comfortable leaving them with her.

About: I have loved and cared for dogs and cats for most of my life. I was lucky enough to travel with my family, showing Standard and Giant Schnauzers expanding my knowledge and love for breeds of all sizes and personalities. Throughout my adulthood I have enjoyed caring for my friend’s pets while they were away. I just recently moved to Fayetteville and I miss having pets now and would like to be able to get some sloppy kisses, hugs and purrrrfect companionship and would love the opportunity to care for part of your family while you are away. Walks, playtime and snuggles are a daily routine. Special Skills I am well acquainted with taking care of puppies, and senior dogs with medical needs. I have trained dogs through obedience classes. I’m currently on Summer break and have full weeks of time off from June 1 through August 15th, 2026. The rest of the months I am free from Friday evenings through Sunday evening for home sitting. Holidays I am also free. I follow directions carefully and treat your pet and home as if they were mine. I am happy to text or send picture updates as requested.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 3 years and truly enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities and energy levels. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to each pet’s routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved at all times. I currently have a very open and flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and care throughout the day. I’m available most weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priority. I take time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and needs so they feel relaxed and cared for in a familiar environment. I'm patient, attentive, and reliable, and I always make sure pets have plenty of love, attention, exercise, fresh water, and a clean space while in my care.

About: I’ve taken care of various dogs, puppies, cats, aquatic animals for several years now. I gained most of my experience with animals while being a nanny, and often watch pets while families go out of town or overnight trips. I currently work full time, so my hours are typically limited before 8 and after 5. I’m extremely flexible and often available on weekends for extra cuddles and playtime with your pet! As an animal owner myself, I know how hard leaving your baby can be. My top priority is to provide your pet with the highest quality care and the safest environment! All of my attention will be geared toward your animal(s). I also strive to have clear communication to make you and your pet feel as comfortable as possible.

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life, especially when it comes to cats. I grew up in a household that always had multiple cats. I just recently moved from my parents house where we had four, including a rescue I brought back from an overseas deployment. I also have experience caring for senior pets, including my childhood pet, a 14 year old Siamese in her final years, where I provided comfort, medication support, and close monitoring. I’ve fostered multiple litters of kittens, including bottle feeding, scheduled care, and neonatal support (including stimulation for bathroom and feeding routines), so I’m very comfortable with young or high needs animals. I also have hands on experience caring for dogs, including a family chocolate lab that I regularly walked, took on beach trips, transported safely in my vehicle, and maintained consistent feeding and exercise routines for. I’m comfortable managing leash behavior, high energy dogs, and ensuring pets get both physical activity and attention. What sets me apart is my genuine compassion and attentiveness. I treat every pet like my own and take the time to understand their personality, needs, and comfort level. Treating any animal I encounter humanely is my calling. It is humans responsibility to care for them. I’m a substitute teacher, so I’m able to plan my days around the pets I’m caring for. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits, and I make sure to stay consistent with each pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and cared for. I have no pets or children at home. I have a huge backyard that isn’t completely fenced, but property behind it. No smoking or people coming in/out for any reasons.

I have a boxer and a boxer mix (larger size dogs) and I am VERY picky on who I have watch them. I had another dog sitter scheduled to watch my dogs and a few days before I was to leave for a trip they had to cancel because they got sick. Malik stepped in and said he'd be happy to watch my dogs. We had a meet and greet that went very well. Malik did an outstanding job! He watched my dogs for a week at my house during the day and everyday he either sent pics or a video of them. My younger dog is normally a bit on the shy side and within a day or so she was laying on the couch next to him. I would 10 out of 10 have him watch my dogs again!!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs that were either my own or someone else’s since I was 8 years old. I love spending time with all kinds of animals, and I can feed and give pets medicine. I have 2 dogs of my own and I would really love to meet you and your furry family member! When house sitting, I walk dogs in the morning and evenings and do my best to stick to their regular feeding schedule and other routines. I love all animals. All of your dog’s regular household and walking rules will be adhered to. They won’t be picking up any bad habits from me.

FAQs for House Sitting - Raeford

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Raeford on Rover is $35.84 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 470 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Raeford. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Raeford 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 Raeford 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.

Tip: 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 Raeford 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 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.

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

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.
