“Miriam was an attentive overnight sitter for my two senior pups. Provided lots of pictures and videos and kept me up to date on their meals! Will book her again next out of town trip!”
“Whitney took amazing care of our two dogs while we were out of town! She treated them like they were her own and gave us so much peace of mind, especially with leaving our puppy for the first time! Will absolutely be rebooking Whitney for future stays!”
“Rena was great with my pups and showered them with love. She made sure I knew about their day and how they were doing with lots of pictures and videos, which were greatly appreciated! She made sure one of our pups got her ear drops each day and let me know when she did them. I highly recommend Rena and will use her in the future :)”
“Jessica has made my first time having a dog sitter a truly remarkable experience! She checked in with me often and sent multiple photos and updates, and gave me peace of mind that my doggies were well taken care of. I came back to safe, happy dogs and I'm sure they had a fun time with her! She was also very respectful to my home, professional, and communicated well. Thank you Jessica”
About: I have cared for multiple different breeds of dogs through out my life. I love animals and treat them as my own. No dog is to big or to wild to be cared for and loved for and duration of time I am comfortable with giving medication when needed, and have experience with basic obedience in animals. All ages are welcome I do work so drop in sitting would only be on the weekends. I can care for pets over night and pet sit cats as much as needed. Over nights are more than welcome at anytime, as well as checking on pets in their own home I have a fenced in yard. I also walk daily when pet sitting and the pets have full access to my home as if they were part of our own family.
“Courtney was absolutely amazing! She took care of my dogs for an entire month while I was on vacation, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She was reliable, caring, and treated my dogs like they were her own. Being away for that long can be stressful, but knowing they were in such good hands gave me so much peace of mind. I came home to happy, well-cared-for pups, and I’m truly grateful for everything she did. I would 100% trust Courtney with my dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and genuinely caring. Thank you so much, Courtney! ❤️🐾”
“Alivia was great with our two dogs and cat. Our cat became sick during the time Alivia was here and she acted quickly to help her get to feeling better. Alivia would send frequent updates as well and is a very good communicator. I could not have asked for anyone better!”
“I just recently booked with Alicia for house sitting my Austrailian shepherd. I can’t rave enough about what great care she took of my girl and most of all put my mind at ease. I was very anxious about leaving my girl for the first time for a 2 day trip but she was very reassuring and she was already well versed on how to approach a timid dog. My dog and I do a lot of training together and she has always been trained not to just go up to strangers or dogs without my approval so makes her weary about strangers just grabbing her, she doesn’t like that. Alicia took her time with Stormie and allowed her to warm up to her and took no time at all for Stormie to be completely comfortable around her. Alicia had no issues with staying on the schedule I already have set for my girl as far as walking her feeding times, play time, crate time. She was a very timely person and made sure to arrive on time and stay on schedule with any times I had set. She also made sure to leave my house spotless before she left and will take care of your pet and your home as if it were her own. Alicia was also really great about keeping me posted the entire time with pictures and videos and even text message updates. If you are looking for a very trustworthy person to stay in your home and keep your mind at ease while your away from your precious pet, Alicia is your girl!”
“Lauren did a great job taking care of my 2 older dogs. She gave them meds, made sure my oldest one ate, and kept the diaper on him. She was reliable about coming to my house and staying overnight, and sent pics each day. I would definitely trust her to watch my dogs again!”
About: I have loved and cared for dogs and cats for most of my life. I was lucky enough to travel with my family, showing Standard and Giant Schnauzers expanding my knowledge and love for breeds of all sizes and personalities. Throughout my adulthood I have enjoyed caring for my friend’s pets while they were away. I just recently moved to Fayetteville and I miss having pets now and would like to be able to get some sloppy kisses, hugs and purrrrfect companionship and would love the opportunity to care for part of your family while you are away. Walks, playtime and snuggles are a daily routine. Special Skills I am well acquainted with taking care of puppies, and senior dogs with medical needs. I have trained dogs through obedience classes. I’m currently on Summer break and have full weeks of time off from June 1 through August 15th, 2026. The rest of the months I am free from Friday evenings through Sunday evening for home sitting. Holidays I am also free. I follow directions carefully and treat your pet and home as if they were mine. I am happy to text or send picture updates as requested.
“I take care of my baby very well, more than I expected, I trusted her from day 1 and she will continue to be the one who will take care of her with her eyes closed!!! Excellent work I will leave 5 stars for it!”
“Bethany was reliable and punctual. She sent pictures and videos that made me feel confident that my dogs were happy and well cared for during my trip. I will definitely ask her to care for my dogs in the future.”
“We are so appreciative that Jazmine came to watch our fur babies over the Holiday week. She was very responsive, sent lots of pictures and even cleaned the house prior to our return. Thank you Jazmine, we appreciate you and look forward to seeing you again sometime soon 😊”
“Mrs. Chatavia is very patient and loving with my puppy! She takes such good care of Noey and makes sure to keep me updated throughout the day with pictures and messages. It’s such a relief knowing he’s in great hands — I can tell she truly cares. 💕”
“Joshua did amazing watching our two dogs. They are super energetic and playful and he was able to keep them worn out by the end of each day. He took very good care with their regimented feeding and sleeping schedule. Would definitely recommend.”
About: I've been pet sitting for some family friends for the last 5 years and have watched dogs of various breeds for 4 different families. Watching both dogs and just recently in the last year cats. So far I've watched up to 3 dogs at a time. I'm happy to take them out for walks, make sure that they go to the bathroom, that they've eaten, medicine taken, and their water bowls are always filled. I've watched both senior dogs and young dogs. If your sweet fur child has any need any specific needs that need to be followed just let me know and I'll make sure it's done! I'll also make sure to give you updates on anything that happens! Like when I get to your place, when I'm about to leave, if your furry friend gets sick, has an accident, or just general update how well they're doing. I'm also working to get a pet cpr certification. I do ask that before I watch your furry buddy that I come over for a short visit before the scheduled date to meet your furry friend, so you and your furry friend can both trust me, and we can discuss any specific details and get a key to your house if needed. I'm a single game developer and artist who works from home. So I've got a good amount of free time throughout the day, where I can stop working and drive over to help out if your in need of any. If your someone that works an early morning shift and you need someone at your house by 6 to 7 AM at the latest to let your dogs go to the bathroom, make sure they're fed, medicine taken, or take them out for a short walk. I can be there. I can promise you that I'm a rule follower. If you tell me not to do something I won't do it. If I am unsure of something I can promise you that I'll send you a text or give you a call to get your input on whatever it is that I'm unsure of. I'll also make sure to give updates, and let you know when I've arrived and when I'm leaving. I'll also make sure to let you know if any accidents happen, and clean up any mess that may happen!
“Sarah was wonderful. We were gone for 4 days total and she stayed at our home with our 2 dogs. Sarah sent multiple photos and videos each day and combination leading up to the weekend was great. Definitely plan to have her watch our sweet dogs again! We were so very appreciative of her!”

Paige was a fantastic dogsitter!! She was great with all of my pets, 2 dogs and 3 cats. She took the time to brush out my German Shepard/Huskey mix while I was away and sent me daily photos of her visits while I was away. She even took the time to play with my pet spider out in the carport (in my defense, I didn't know I had a pet spider). Seriously though, Paige is great and I will definitely book her again the next time I have to go out of town. You should check her out, she is great people.
Victoria did an amazing job taking care of my two Cane Corsos, Zeus and Zuri! She provided in-home pet sitting, followed their care guide perfectly, and gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She kept me updated with tons of pictures and messages, which meant the world to me. It was obvious that she truly cared for them and treated them like her own. Zeus and Zuri were happy, well cared for, and comfortable when I got home. If you’re looking for someone who is trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely loves animals, I can’t recommend Victoria enough. I would absolutely book with her again!
Jessica has made my first time having a dog sitter a truly remarkable experience! She checked in with me often and sent multiple photos and updates, and gave me peace of mind that my doggies were well taken care of. I came back to safe, happy dogs and I'm sure they had a fun time with her! She was also very respectful to my home, professional, and communicated well. Thank you Jessica
He took care of all 4 of my dogs mind you they are all big dogs and my youngest had to take medicine 2 times a day he sent me pictures and and everything even cleaned my kitchen and a few other places and took care of all my packages that got delivered while I was gone and even cut my backyard cuz it was getting long. All my dogs were loved on and very well takin care of words can not express how grateful and happy I would 100% be booking with him again for sure
Jackson was great! We have four dogs that are a handful with two pages of instructions and we came back to happy dogs and a clean house - which, when you typically catch late flights home, being able to go to bed as soon as you get home instead of cleaning up is the best ever.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Spring Lake on Rover is $39.96 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 648 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Spring Lake. 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 Spring Lake 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 Spring Lake 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 Spring Lake 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Spring Lake. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
