About: I grew up in a household with a dog and have since lived with two other dogs including a senior golden retriever and currently a vizsla puppy!

I am a senior studying zoology at NC State! I have classes M,W,F mornings from 10:40-1. I also work in ministry which takes up my Monday nights from 5:30-10, Wednesday nights from 7-9, and Sunday mornings from 8:30-12. Around these times, I am pretty flexible! I also do photography but typically in 30 min to an hour long sessions and can easily work around those as well! I care for pets with love and gentleness! I love to play and/or snuggle so whatever they're up for, I'm ready for it! However I can best make them comfortable, I will accommodate in order to achieve!

“As always, super pleased with Alyssa as our dog sitter. She is so great with the dogs, keeping us up to date on their day, and my favorite- sending photos! So grateful we found her and have someone so reliable. Also a giant plus to get home to a very clean home! We appreciate her so much!”

About: I have taken care of many breeds of dogs to include small and large breeds. I’m available for housesitting as well as drop in visits and walks on short notice.I’m excited to get your baby out and get them some exercise. I am currently laid off and have open availability. I would love the opportunity to help with your babies needs while you’re on vacation or just for a walk. I care for my two pets in my home every day. I am a trustworthy individual who loves animals. I am able to host some animals in my home. I am also able to go into homes and walk animals or pet sit.
“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.”
“Great job, pricing & would recommend Brittany. Both of my pets had zero stress while I was away. That says a lot about the person you leave in charge & my house was kept up as well.”
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.
“This was our first time using Rover and we’re a bit hesitant to give it a try. We found Kelsey who had great reviews and upon meeting her in person, felt comfortable to move forward with booking her for a 5 night stay in our home watching our golden retriever. Kelsey was fantastic! She did an amazing job keeping an eye on our home but must importantly, taking care of our dog. She provided daily updates and her communication was always prompt. Highly recommend Kelsey and we will definitely be using her again!”
“Allen was great! I needed a last minute sitter and Allen was the perfect choice. Great communication and put up with my silly dogs with no complaints. Left my house in great condition. I look forward to having him stay with my beasties again. Thank you so much! 💜”
About: I have four people that I dog and kitty sit for. I just wanted to open that up a little more so I thought I would try this app. I love all kind of animals. I have a little dog of my own and I am keeping my daughters cat until she gets out of college in December. Anytime I’m walking my little dog around the neighborhood and we see other dogs walking I’m usually always interested in meeting their dog and seeing what They are and getting their name so if we see them again. Little things like that are just a joy. I think you would see when you meet me in person you will know I would be perfect for your baby.

Suzanne was outstanding. We have had several stay in rovers but have been the most pleased with Suzanne and her husband Rick. They truly care for your animals as if they’re family. You’ll get updates, pictures, and your dogs will get quality time if you choose to book Suzanne. Highly recommend for all your pet sitting, or dog walking needs!
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 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 869 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.
