“Donna was great. Prompt arrival and constant comma while we were away. She sent pictures and let us know Shirley was scratching her face likely due to anxiety. She treated our dog wonderfully and I would not hesitate to book again”
“We love booking our pup sitting with Josh! He takes very good care of Bella while we go out of town and is great at communicating with us the whole time. We will definitely continue to recommend him to friends and family as well as rebook with him for the future!”
“We had a wonderful first experience with Ozlen sitting in our home for our two dogs. She came to meet us prior to finalizing the booking which is always super important to my husband and I. She sent regular communication and updates daily. She also asked questions when she had them! Our boys were spoiled with walks - she walked them more than we usually do. We would welcome her back anytime.”
“Ayla went above and beyond!!! She took wonderful care of the dogs and was nonjudgemental about the rottenness of our fur babies. Not only that, but she watered the garden and spotted yellow jacket nests in the yard and sent me pictures so that I could locate them when I got home. I will use her again if I ever need a dog sitter!”
“Debra was super responsive and friendly. She is very trust worthy and great at communicating. Our pets enjoyed having her watch them while we were out of town. We recommend her for any of your pet needs!”
“I highly recommend Allison. She took such wonderful care of my Pooches. I especially appreciated the extra care that was given to my 14 year old Cavalier. He is on daily meds and needs assistance getting up and down steps. Allison was a real trooper with his needs!”
About: Hi, I’m Annamaria — a Star Sitter here in Raleigh with years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities 🐶💛 I truly treat every pet like family. My goal is to make your days easier and your dogs’ days happier — full of exercise, love, and attention! Before moving to North Carolina, I lived in Shanghai, where I volunteered with the local animal rescue team to protect and rehabilitate dogs — that experience made me even more passionate about providing safe, compassionate care. When I’m not playing with pups, I’m a mom of two, cooking healthy meals, and working out (so your dogs get plenty of energy from me too!). I’m available most weekdays between 9 AM–3 PM and 4 PM–8 PM, plus overnight stays for traveling families. ✅ Fresh food & water always ✅ Clean, cozy environment ✅ Playtime, walks & cuddles ✅ Daily updates with photos/videos Your pets will be cared for as if they were my own 🐾 Your pup will never be left alone here! 🐶💛 While I work full time during the day, my mom and my 4-year-old son, Liam, are always home to give love, attention, and company. There’s constant supervision, playtime, and gentle care throughout the day. When I return home, I take over with evening walks, extra cuddles, and a calm bedtime routine. Your dog will always feel safe, loved, and part of our family 🏡🐾 Your pup will stay in a loving, family-centered home where someone is always around to give care and attention 🐶💛. My mom and my 4-year-old son, Liam, are home throughout the day, offering gentle companionship and supervision. Our home is calm, clean, and pet-friendly, with plenty of space for play and rest. I follow every owner’s instructions closely — from feeding times to favorite routines — so your dog feels comfortable and secure. We keep water fresh, play areas tidy, and give updates with photos so you can relax knowing your pup is safe, happy, and loved like part of our family 🏡🐾.
“We will never be able to thank Lori enough. There was a fire in our building and she got both pets, and herself, out safely. Our pets immediately warmed up to her, we received lots of photos throughout the weekend, and I knew without a doubt that our pets were safe and taken care of. We would absolutely book with Lori again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone.”
“Maddy was very attentive to both the both of my dogs needs. She treated them very well, sent frequent pictures and updates left the house clean and organized, and I will certainly use her again.”
“Sarah was awesome with our pets! She took excellent care and was very communicative while we were out. I would happily book with Sarah again! Ps. She took some excellent action shots of our dog!! Loved it :)”
“Courtney watched my two dogs and cat while we were out of town. She had great communication and updated me multiple times throughout my trip. Highly recommend booking with Courtney for any of your pet sitting needs!”
“Rachel was very flexible and reliable house sitting with our dog for a long weekend. Our dog seemed happy and our house was well taken care of. Rachel sent photos and updated which is always appreciated.”

I know how important it is for your fur babies to be taken care of well when you are gone and desire to take care of them with excellence! Currently just graduated from PT school and have lots of free time before getting a job while studying for my board exam! Currently back home for the next few months and would love to fill my time with some good pet breaks during the study session! I have had a lot of experience with babysitting in other people’s home. My mom taught me to leave places better than you found it, and that’s exactly how I would treat your home!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Rolesville
Bri did an outstanding job pet and house sitting! She provided regular communication, updates, and pictures of our pups throughout the weekend. When we returned the house was well-kept and the dogs were calm and appeared happy from their walks and the care and attention she provided. Would highly recommend her and use her for future services!
Ellie, Lucy, and Wiggie were very well cared for! We received updates and photos to keep us well informed and to show us the girls were happy. The house was clean when we got home and fresh sheets were already on the bed! That makes a big difference to me that I don’t have to come home and immediately start working! Brandi and John were a bit more expensive than some other sitters, charging for each pet! But peace of mind that your babies are being taken care of, is well worth it!! Thank you so much!!
WOW I am blown away by Chenelles attention to detail and fantastic communication. We’ve had rovers for our dogs entire lives (8 years!) and she is hands down the best sitter we have ever had. We have difficult dogs who have to be separated most of the time and have anxiety issues and she handled them so perfectly. I truly appreciated the lengthy and detailed updates twice a day, expressing their quirks and habits which shows me how well she paid attention to them. If she’s available for your date… BOOK HER! ❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Rolesville is $61 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $36 and $73 per night. 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 2,887 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rolesville. 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 Rolesville 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 Rolesville 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 Rolesville 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Rolesville. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
