“Alonna was AMAZING! She jumped in to help at the last minute and we couldn’t be more happy with her. She took care of our two pups and they loved her. We will definitely be using Alonna again!”
“Annie did a great job with my dogs. I was so thankful that she was able to be flexible with my schedule that changed several times. She kept me up date with how the dogs were doing. I would definitely recommend her.”
“Took care of our social cat for days while we are on vacation. My cat was healthy and happy when I returned! Let me know my cat threw up a hairball and cleaned it up for us!”
“I’m a repeat booker of Ranekqwa’s and I highly recommend her. Both of my fur babies are special cases, ones a feisty grump and the other is a ball of energy who is slow to warm up to new people. Ranekqwa was extremely patient with my baby who is slow to warm up. She showed up as scheduled, was communicative, and showed extreme care for my big baby. I would highly recommend her.”
“Jen is very kind to come at short notice. She is attentive to detail, and we are confident that we can trust that the visit will be just fine. Our cats are not lovey to strangers, but at least we.are able to determine that nothing is amiss.”
“Kelly did a fantastic job taking care of our cat. This was the first time we hired a pet sitter so we were a little nervous about how our 16-year old Rascal would do. Kelly alleviated all our concerns and did a wonderful job. Having the notification of each visit and pictures is a real bonus. Would definitely hire Kelly again! And rover.com makes everything so simple and easy.”
“Sierra was awesome 👏 she was so sweet with our cat Daisy Mae and sent lots of photos at each drop in visit and was here promptly at each visit our cat is skittish and she came out for belly rubs at the second visit would definitely have Sierra back again for Daisy Mae thanks Sierra !!”
About: My extensive experience in pet care includes a strong focus on providing attentive and nurturing care to animals of all ages. I have a particular knack for understanding and catering to the unique needs of senior pets, ensuring they receive the gentle care and attention they require. Additionally, I'm skilled in creating a comfortable and reassuring environment for pets, helping them feel safe and content while their owners are away! I am currently working part-time, which means I’ll have plenty of time for your fur baby! I do work some weekends so if chosen I will make sure I am 100% available! For boarding I am available whenever. We can message about a time that works for both of us! In both my home and my clients' homes, I prioritize the safety, trust, and comfort of every pet under my care. Safety measures are paramount, encompassing pet-proofing spaces, using gates or crates where necessary, and identifying and mitigating potential hazards such as cords or harmful plants. Building trust with pets is central to my approach; I establish routines that align with their habits and preferences, ensuring they feel secure and understood. This involves gentle handling, positive reinforcement, and consistent, compassionate care. Additionally, I strive to create a stimulating environment by incorporating regular walks, playtime, and enrichment activities tailored to each pet's individual needs. Maintaining a clean and tidy space is essential to their well-being, ensuring they thrive in a nurturing and enjoyable setting whether they're in my care at home or in yours!
“Thank you so much, Autumn, for taking such wonderful care of Molly and Bella. I really appreciate the time, attention, and kindness you gave them at lunchtimes. It means a lot to know they were in such good hands. You did a great job, and I’m grateful for your help.”
About: I have been petsitting and house sitting for family and friends for 5 years now, I have worked at 4 different animal hospitals and boarding / breeding facilities. I have two dogs of my own who I train and work with on a daily. I live at home with my family for the meantime and would love to meet your fur babies ! I am looking to quit my current kennel job at Club Fetch, I am willing to work everyday of the week and when needed, I can do whatever your schedule needs me to! I have given subcutaneous shots before, Im an expert at getting a dogs to take meds. I like to connect with my pets and yours on a personal level. I have been trained to know different body languages of dogs and cats. I love taking my dog on walks in the park and letting him just be out in nature.
About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds (furry, feathery, and scaley) since I was 12 years old. I have experience caring for exotics and others in all manners from feeding, walking, playing, training and more! I teach part time so I have time throughout the day to care for the pets I’m caring for and tend to any extra needs they may have. I have a large fenced in yard and two friendly playful dogs who love company. I lead an active life so your pets will have a chance to play and exercise with plenty of time leftover to snuggle and relax! Our almost 2 year old son has always been around dogs and loves to play and snuggle with them too!
About: I've owned 3 dogs throughout the years and I've always petsat for friends and family since I was a young teenager. I am also a former employee of Happy Dog Daycare and Spa for 3 years. I have kept some clients from my time at Happy Dog and still petsit for them, my friends and family regularly. Typically every other week or a few times a month. I have a collection of dog toys and keep food and treats stocked in-home. If pet parents allow, I will let their dog play with my family's dogs, daily walks around the neighborhood or local parks and a comfortable environment. These also apply for house visits and any activity or request made by pet parents will be followed.
About: With over 5 years of experience caring for pets and a background as a Cardiac Technician Nurse, I bring both compassion and reliability to every pet I meet. I’ve cared for my own pets and others, I truly enjoy building bonds with animals! Just like my career as a cardiac nurse, I treat every pet with patience, love, and attention to detail because they deserve as much care as we do! I provide the utmost care nearly every hour of the day because of my availability. Side note: If you see any photos of me with a grey pit bull (most likely sleeping😂), that’s my late boy Jaxson 🥹. A lot of people as about him I just moved from MS to NC at the beginning of August 2025. I’m currently not working at the moment so my schedule is wide open! I am able to care for them 24/7! I create a loving environment where they can feel secure and happy while you’re away. Whether your dog loves playtime, cuddles, pets or quiet companionship, I easily adjust to their unique personality and needs. You can trust that they’ll be cared for with the same attention and heart I give in my health care career. I do NOT accept bookings with pets that are unfriendly or aggressive to other pets!!!!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Stanley stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Stanley 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!
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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Stanley with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
