“Brittney was one of the best sitters we have ever had. Her attention to details was amazing. She loved on our fur babies and they were so content when we came home. I highly recommend her.”
“Elizabeth was a great sitter - her calm, friendly personality was a perfect fit for our pup! We appreciated her reliability and communication throughout the process. We returned to a happy pup and a tidy house. We'd recommend her to others - Thank you, Elizabeth!”
“Stephanie stayed overnight at our house with our two dogs and they loved every minute! They got extra snuggles and comfort during a thunderstorm. She’s definitely the best!”
“Karleigh was amazing with my dogs! they absolutely loved her and she really treated them like her own! We loved having her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter!”
“Alissa has a wonderful attention to detail and was an excellent communicator from the first contact until we arrived home after our trip. She stayed in our home with our 2 dogs and the house was clean and tidy when we got back (trash emptied, counters wiped down and bed made). The dogs seem very happy and she sent us pics and video and kept us posted on how things were going.”
“My cat, who is normally shy with people, felt comfortable with Shawn right away. He spent a lot of quality time with her and I could tell through the photos he sent that she was relaxed and content. He was also prompt in communicating by text. Shawn has a great rapport with animals and I would definitely hire him again in the future.”
“Olivia was AMAZING!! Highly recommend her. She stayed at my house with my two dogs and sent daily updates with photos. She was everything I was looking for in a dog sitter. She even swept my floors before leaving which was above and beyond.”
About: I have been a dogsitter for about 6 years. I grew up with 4 dogs in my household. My grandparents were my next door neighbors and they had 5 dogs. I work full time at UNCW as a Parking Enforcement Officer. I normally work 7-4. After work I will spend time with your pets and I am off weekends where I can spend all day with them. I live in a gated area. I have a big back yard they could run around and I also live by the water if they like water!
About: I have taken care of animals of all kinds over the years, from small to big furry friends and can’t wait to meet your babies! I offer in home stays with weekday and weekend availability. I am flexible so just feel free to reach out and I will be more than happy to try and help you where you need it. I am more than happy to take your animals on walks, feed them, play with them or whatever they love to do. I am there for you and them so if there are specific request, just let me know!
“Very punctual, communication and timing were excellent and above all else my pup absolutely Loved Gavin! Highly recommend using Gavin for walks/out of town trips requiring a sitter!”
“Raechel did an amazing job of watching our 2 dogs for an entire week. She sent us pics of our dogs and let us know how they were doing. Was super nice to come home to some relaxed dogs and know they were well taken care of.”
“Trinity was reliable, took good care of our energetic puppy, and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We appreciated her help and would be happy to recommend her to others looking for someone dependable to care for their pets.”
“Ross was fantastic. He asked very thorough questions about care for our dog, and how to be a good guest in our home. He stayed in regular touch with updates and photos, and We returned to a clean house and a very happy pup! Highly recommend him for walks, boarding or housesitting”
About: I offer dog walking, potty breaks, and playtime as well as house sitting. I love being outside. I have had dogs and cats all of my life and I am very responsible and compassionate. I treat all pets as if they are my family. If you have a high energy dog I can definitely handle him/her and wear him out! I can also care for cats, fish, rabbits, etc. (no snakes please!) I can bring in mail, take trash cans to and from the curb on trash days, water plants, you name it! Message me for details!! I enjoy walking dogs and letting them out to use the bathroom first thing each morning. If they require constant care I can do that or if they’re fine to do their own thing I can also leave them to that. I prefer caring for pets in the pets home. This is more comfortable for them anyways. Doggy anxiety is a real thing! And when their family is out of town, it’s best to keep them in their own comfortable environment.
“Laurel did a fantastic job caring for our pups while we were away. She stayed at our home, kept us updated with pictures throughout the trip, and gave us great peace of mind. We came home to a clean house and two very happy dogs. We highly recommend Laurel and will definitely be using her again!”
About: I’ve spent many years pet/house sitting for all different families! I have experience with dogs of all sizes, cats and kittens, and even turtles! I love going for walks, cleaning and organizing, and spending time with all animals! I am currently a college student with a very flexible schedule and would be able to commute and cater to any animals needs! I am currently a college student with only three in-person classes 4 days a week with very flexible hours! Classes start August 17th and until then, my schedule is completely open! I’m new to Rover and new to Wilmington but several years of experience with pet care! I personally love all animals and care for them deeply with lots of affection! I am dependent with their schedules and love going for walks and getting activity in! I love creating a happy and clean environment and would always keep things organized.
“Chan took very good care of my pet during his stay, kept me up to date, sent me pics throughout and is very tidy. I was very comfortable being away with my pet under his care. He went above and beyond to communicate with me to check on potential flight delays to ensure I would be home on time. I will def use Chan's service again.”

Suzanne is an awesome petsitter….. showing so much love and compassion for our precious fur baby! Excellent communication with updates and pictures. It was so reassuring not to be worried about our sweet girl when we had to be away. We are very grateful for Suzanne!
Maddie was great meeting my pups for the first time and giving them excellent care and snuggles in my home. My trip was a bit last minute and the weather was a concern for a bit but Maddie was communicative the whole time. I will definitely book her again! Thanks so much for making leaving the pups stress free Maddie!

FAQs for House Sitting - Sloop Point
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Sloop Point on Rover is $42.8 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 879 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sloop Point. 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 Sloop Point 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 Sloop Point 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 Sloop Point 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.

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.
