“Natalie was absolutely amazing! We booked her for a few visits originally over the holiday, but due to some flight changes, we had to add on an extra day and we were so happy Natalie was available! It was easy to book with her and she took such good care of our kitties!”
About: I’ve been raised around dogs and cats my whole life. From giving medication to helping a paralyzed dog walk and go potty, I am very attentive to what a dog and cat needs. I know how stressful it can be to leave your animal at home all day without human interaction or going outside to potty, but with my help I will be able to do that for you. I will not overstep any boundaries and follow your rules and instructions for your pet. I am available from 5pm-10pm M-F and any time on the weekends! I would love to watch, take care of, or walk your pet. Each pet that I have ever taken care, i treat them like my own. I wouldn’t want someone who doesn’t care for animals to take care of them. Each pet gets a lot of attention and the best care. I make sure I do what the owner(s) tells me and provide them with any sort of issue or concern. With in-home visits, I will make sure I am doing what is being told. If they need to eat or play, I will do so. With walking, i will make sure it’s in an area you and your pet are comfortable with.
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 6. I had an uncle that would rescue cats and dogs and I would help him. I’ve cared, bathe, fed, assisted dog labour and I’m equipped to take care of your babies! I currently art therapist remote work so I’ll have so much time to be at home and play, sleep and be present with your pets! I also have a 9 month old and he is obsessed with dogs ! We do have one dog and cat in the home. My house environment is very safe, we have a backyard and no pet escape fence. I will follow all instructions stating at my place or at your home ! Thank you ☺️
“I cannot even begin to describe how amazing Brittani is! I have never seen someone show so much love and care for an animal that isn’t theirs in my entire life. She not only wrote detailed paragraphs every visit, but visited my kitty on off-days just to keep her company at no additional cost. I hope to never use another Rover again for as long as we live in this area! Don’t consider anyone else, Brittani is an absolute gem”
“Krystal is so great with our dogs! She is so friendly and I love how she keeps us posted on how the visit is going and always checked in. My dogs love her which is probably the most important thing! She is so sweet with them and really cares!”
“Taylor provided excellent care to our two Dobermans. She was willing to come out early and meet our dogs and was very friendly. She arrived on time for a drop in visit and provided timely updates and many pictures of our dogs hanging out. We were very happy to use Taylor and will absolutely reach out to her again for future visits and stays during our travels.”
“Our Rover sitter was fantastic! Even though our cat is very shy and hid during every visit, she was incredibly patient, caring, and understanding. She made sure Mango had fresh food and water, gave him treats, and checked that everything was okay. We really appreciated the updates. It gave us peace of mind knowing someone was checking on our cat, even if Mango chose to stay hidden the entire time. We came home to a happy, healthy cat, and everything was just as we left it. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate pet sitter!”

“Samantha did a great job visiting my Moxie. She visited her and walked her. She did more than requested and Moxie was tired out from all the attention. Samantha sent a lot of pictures of the visit, which aloud me to see how much fun Moxie was having. I will be using her again!”
“Ashley did a great job taking care of our three dogs over the holidays. One is a puppy still working on his house training which can be a lot of extra work but she was amazing. I got pictures every day and I came home to a clean house and three happy dogs!”
About: I’ve always had a special place for animals! Growing up, my home was sanctuary to 3 dogs, a cat, sweet guinea pigs, and even on occasion a ladybug or butterfly (in order to prove my caregiving skills to my parents). From my days dog-walking and pet-sitting, I honed in my pet are skills during my time working for a pet store and boarding clinic called Lucky Pets. At Lucky Pets I was able to master my pet-sitting skills, absorb many different types of dog training methods, and learn about all sorts of pet products and pet needs. I’m currently a recent graduate and UCF ROTC commissionee of the U.S. Army, and I’m awaiting my orders this summer. I have a car, and I’m able to drive to your house to watch over your pet! I’m very comfortable hanging out with your pet in mine or your home, and I’m able to feed, walk, and play with any animal big or small!
“This was my husband's and my first experience using Rover, and Bernice was so wonderful! Each visit included a custom summary, and she always included the sweetest photos and notes about each of our kitties! She clearly has a way with animals, because our scared boy, Vader, does NOT like other people. But he liked Bernice! I think he came out of his hiding place as soon as her second visit? I would rebook with Bernice in a heartbeat, and she'll be the first Rover sitter I reach out to when we need someone.”
“Haley was a blessing for us! She showered our pups with attention, care, and love while we were away for 9 days! She will definitely be our go to in the future for our dogs. Could not be more pleased with how professional and kind Haley watched over Luna and Louie!!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs all my life, helping out neighbors, friends, and family with walking, feeding, and even the occasional bath. Over the years, I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs, big and small, playful puppies to seniors. I genuinely love spending time with animals and always treat them like part of the family. Whether your pet needs a cuddle buddy or someone to burn off some energy, I’m here to help! Right now, I’m in between graduation and starting my full-time job, so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I’m using this time to do something I truly enjoy—spending time with animals. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine, whether it’s morning walks, afternoon check-ins, or overnight stays. It’s a great way for me to stay active and do something meaningful. I have a spacious apartment with plenty of room for an animal and lots of walking trails nearby to walk around! Just five feet from my home is a dog park where I take pups to run, play, and socialize (with your permission, of course). I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine, crate if needed, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
About: Caring for your pets is my priority. I will follow all of your pet specific requests to your preference. I have experience caring for others' pets for as long as up to nine days at a time. Whatever you need, I am here to provide for your pets. If desired, I can run with your pet. I am a very careful and thoughtful person. Your pets best interest will always be at the forefront of my mind. I have about eight years of experience in caring for others' pets, but I have grown up having pets my entire life. I look forward to caring for your pets! And of course, if you have any questions, feel free to reach out! Thank you for your time and consideration. I have a very flexible work schedule and am always willing to provide pet care on weekends as well! I definitely have more time to dedicate to your pets than ever before! I have a spacious yard for your pet to have plenty of room to spend time playing outside. My house is pet friendly inside, with plenty of room.
About: Family has always had cats and dogs. I absolutely love them! Usually when family would go out of town I would watch the animals for them. I work from 7:30 am to 4 pm during the week but on the weekends I’m usually home taking care of my dog who is very people and animal friendly. I have a dog so I’m always taking her outside and taking care of her. I have a fenced in backyard so taking them outside to potty is easier but I will also go outside with them just to make sure. I have a dog myself so they will be taken care of. I love all animals!
“Rey was great to work with . She communicated well and was very thorough in taking care of my dog. She went over and beyond to make sure my pup was okay while I was out of town.”
About: My ultimate priority is to ensure that your furry friend is cared for, feels loved, and has fun all while you’re away from home. In the past ten years I have owned 3 dogs. Two of them have been miniature schnauzers. Currently I have a minutare schnauzer/Yorkshire Terrier mix. I love engaging with all types of dogs. I enjoy going on walks, playing fetch, or just cuddling and relaxing with a good old furry friend! I believe that the ultimate key to the best pet care is attentiveness and providing your pet great companionship! Whether you have a cat or dog, your friend is my friend! I will play, cuddle, and treat your pet like my own! Rest assured your pet will have the best quality care and love! I work full-time M-F 8:00-3:45. Therefore I am available early mornings and evenings on weekdays, but I can be fully accessible on weekends (Saturday & Sunday). I have 10+ years of experience with dogs. I am also willing to pet sit kitties. I follow instructions very carefully. I am also an avid learner. Your pet’s safety and comfort is my top priority!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Raeford is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $28 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 October 2026, there are 977 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Raeford. 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 .
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 , 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 Raeford. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
