About: Been around dogs since I was little and offically took care of them when I was 8. Animals all around have been welcomed into my life whether they have four legs or not. Currently I am not working so it gives me more time to take care and play with your furry friends! I am available almost all hours of the day and can be contacted at anytime if in need of anything! I can easily bathe, clean, feed, brush, refill water for cats along with taking the time to play with them to ensure their daily enrichment for the day. For dogs I can easily help by simply brush, feeding, playing, being put into their crates, or even walking when needed to get their exercise and let them use the bathroom.
“Mya was great with our pup! I have a very energetic and rowdy Aussie, and she did a great job playing with him and watching him for the weekend while I was gone. She was great about updating me, sending me pictures, and letting me know how everything was going! Thank you Mya!”
“I have three wonderful rescue dogs one is just a little higher maintenance. He’s the pit mix and Marci was “ the pit whisperer”. She was so good with Riggs that he wanted to follow her home. I had no worries I knew that everything was well taken care of it was clean when I came home Just as I left it. She’s good with my dogs, allowing them to warm up naturally. I would give her 10 stars. If five was limit she was above and beyond and just wonderful. Marci provided excellent care for my pups which gave me true peace of mind, knowing your babies are well cared for allowed me the pleasure of truly relaxing on Vitamin Sea😎‼️”
About: I have worked with so many animals over the years and I can guarantee that nothing will surprise me. I will provide thoughtful loving care to any animals, just as I have with my own dog and the countless foster cats that have come through my doors. I have worked professionally with lots of animals at a guest ranch and love animals so much that I wanted to be of service for animals in Forsyth county. I am currently an online college student and in between seasonal jobs, making my schedule open for whatever animal care needs people may require. I can be available any day of the week currently. I make sure any animal is fed/walked/let outside on the schedule provided to me and that the animals are all happy and comfortable. If at any time an animal seems uncomfortable I will attempt to remedy the situation immediately.
“Aubrey was fantastic!!! She took care of my German Shepard..sofie for 5days. I was so nervous about leaving her because I haven’t left her side for almost 6 years. Aubrey sent me pictures and she kept in touch everyday. She was so professional and loving and there is absolutely no way I would ever have anyone else be with my baby. She is like family now!!!”
“I was very pleased with Brooke. She took good care of my boy. He was very happy when I got home. And showed no signs of stress from my absence. Good communication also.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every shape, size and personality. From energetic young pups to senior dogs. I will take care of and love your dog like it is my own. I am available Monday-Friday from 9am-1:30pm for home visits, walks, trips to the dog park etc. I am pretty open during the weekends to accommodate your pet needs. Your pup’s safety is my priority. I provide attentive walks, real-time updates, and secure care in your home. I can follow a feeding and potty schedule & provide plenty of belly rubs.
“Brittany was so kind with Prince; he was his normal self when I arrived home which means he didn’t miss a beat when it came to eating, walking, playing, etc. she sent pictures and went out of her way to make sure everything went great; whenever our schedules align I’ll definitely choose her to stay with my little sleepy guy!”
About: Your pup will become part of the fam when they’re with us! I grew up with three dogs and two cats in my home at all times. Now I own a sweet little Yorkie, Athena, who is my best friend. :) I taught her how to sit, lay, jump through a hoop and give high fives! She loves other dogs and people and is always ready to put in her dress harness and go! She doesn’t even care where. Im actually a realtor who mostly works from home! :) Fall and winter are slower months for me and other than the occasional walk in the parks, I’m usually home haha I have a gate that prevents them from going upstairs and an adjustable size crate with a bed for when it’s time to wind down. Frequent walks around the neighborhood. Very safe and friendly neighborhood.
“Desirae was awesome and my dogs loved her! Not only did she allow me to book her on short notice (only a few days prior), she communicated great, sent lots of pics and videos of my 2 dogs, and followed my directions to the tee. My husband and I will definitely be booking her again!”
“Amazing experience having Samira house and pet sit! My dogs loved her right away and I was able to travel knowing everything was well looked after! Samira sent regular updates and pictures. Communication was great. I could not have asked for a better experience and will hope to have Samira come again next time we need pet sitting!”
“Jay house sat for us for six days and did a fantastic job caring for our dogs and cat! He was great with the animals, and it was clear they really enjoyed his company. We came home to happy, relaxed pets and a tidy house. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands while we were away. Highly recommend Jay to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!”
“Allie and Coco found a new best friend - we felt comfortable and safe with our girls in Matt’s hands. We received regular updates and fun photos. Bonus was coming home and not having to change sheets because Matt had already washed them. We will definitely hire Matt again.”
About: I have experience walking dogs and caring for cats for years for friends and family. I grew up around house and barn animals and I am comfortable meeting the needs of animals in many contexts! I love animals and have enjoyed working with dogs and cats over the years! I work Mondays from 1-7pm, Tuesday through Thursday from 10am to 7pm, and Fridays from 9-5. I am free in the Monday through Thursday mornings and throughout the weekends to help care for your pet! I treat your pets and home with the utmost care. Your pets and home are deeply treasured and I treat them with respect and kindness.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a child, growing up with 3 in my household, and a dog grooming grandma who had at least 10 dogs at a time. Both my grandma and my mom were petsitting pros themselves and I followed them around to jobs, eager to learn!. I know the challenge of having to leave your dog behind and the trust it takes to do so; meaning that I value how important entrusting your dogs to me will be. I’ve cared for puppies as young as 6 weeks, and seniors who needed insulin shots. Your dog would be in good, kind, experienced hands. I’m currently working a part-time job outside of Dog Training and Dog Sitting but my hours are flexible as needed, I make my own schedule for most shifts. Staying in your home would allow your dog to feel comfortable and safe. I’d love to stick to your dogs’s routine as much as possible from the moment you leave til the moment you return!
“We had the pleasure of having Heather take care of our sweet golden at the last minute on a holiday weekend while attending a family funeral. I was a nervous wreck to leave my girl with someone strange but Heather took the leash and handled everything professionally. Her communication (pics included) put me at ease. She was great - went above and beyond - and if I lived in that beautiful area I would hire her often and feel right at ease.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Rural Hall is $47

Karissa was AMAZING with our pets. She was calm, caring and really attentive. We have 8 pets and all have their own quirks, she was very friendly and helpful with all of them. We got pictures daily which we really appreciated as it was our first time leaving all of them and we missed them! In the pics they looked happy, relaxed and enjoying their time with her :) I would absolutely 10000% book with Karissa again. She’s the best!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Rural Hall is $50 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $64 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 November 2026, there are 795 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rural Hall. 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 Rural Hall 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 Rural Hall 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 Rural Hall 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.
