“Had a last minute trip with no ability to take my pug with me. I quickly jumped on Rover for the 1st time & found Kyleigh. She responded to my message in minutes and came by that evening to meet my dog. He was so happy to meet her, I knew I found the perfect dog sitter for him! I highly recommend Kyleigh. I will definitely be using her services again in the future!”
“Breanna made our first experience with Rover a great one! We loved all the report cards and pictures we got of our two boys. You can really tell Breanna loves what she does and is good at it. One of our cats acts like a grumpy old man to most people but he LOVED her instantly.. we will definitely use Breanna again”

“Lola is so sweet and my dog really seems to enjoy his time with her. Anytime I texted her to check on my pup she was there to answer almost immediately. I will definitely be booking her again.

About: Hi! I’m 25 years old and a lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of hands-on pet care experience. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your furry (or feathered!) family member needs a walk, a quick drop-in visit, overnight care, or extended sitting, you can count on me to provide reliable, loving care while you’re away. I currently have an Australian Shepherd mix and a pet bird, so I’m experienced with both dogs and exotic pets. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and I understand that every animal has unique needs and routines. I’m also experienced and confident in administering medications, whether that means pills, liquid medications, or following specific care instructions to keep your pet healthy and comfortable. My friends, family, and previous clients consistently describe me as dependable, compassionate, and attentive. I’m proud to have glowing references from pet owners who trust me to care for their beloved companions, and I work hard to earn that trust with every visit. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, playtime, and updates so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. I’m currently available for overnight stays, drop-in visits, dog walking, and other pet care services, and I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets. I can’t wait to give them the same level of care and affection that I give my own! Pet care is already a part of my everyday routine, so caring for additional pets fits seamlessly into my schedule. I start and end each day caring for my own babies, an aussie mix and a quaker 🦜 making sure they receive plenty of exercise, enrichment, attention, and love. Because I’m already committed to a structured pet care routine, I’m able to easily incorporate walks, drop-in visits, feedings, playtime, medication administration, and overnight stays for my clients’ pets. I understand how important consistency is for animals, so I make it a priority to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. Whether it’s an energetic puppy that needs extra playtime, a senior pet requiring medication, or a shy cat that just needs some quiet companionship, I’m happy to provide personalized care that helps your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my highest priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s unique routine, personality, and needs so they feel comfortable and secure in my care. Whether we’re out on a walk, playing at home, or simply relaxing together, I remain attentive and patient while ensuring they stay safe at all times. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos, so you can feel confident knowing your pet is happy, loved, and in good hands.
About: I can't pass a pup in public without getting in a quick pet. If I'm meeting you for the first time I may or may not remember your name, but I'll remember every detail (including name) of your pup. I'm 50 years old, but when I'm in the presence of a furry friend, I start baby talking like a 2-year-old. Bottom line, I love dogs. I am Mama to 4 rescue pups and a rescue kitty. I've proudly fostered 9 rescues over the years and although it's a challenging job, it's extremely rewarding seeing them happy and healthy in their forever homes and knowing that I had a small part to play in that. I'm a stay-at-home Mom of two teenagers who don't need me nearly as much as they used too. That newly acquired free time enables me to accomodate almost any number of drop in visits per day to spend quality time with your fur baby! My pups are used to a specific routine and thrive when they are comfortable and know what to expect. With that being said, I'm happy to follow any care instructions that you request. From administering medication to going on fun-filled walks, your request is my command!
“Morgan has been amazing with my three senior pups! She has been coming for drop in visits for quite a while now and I am so thankful to have found her! She always sends detailed updates at every visit and multiple adorable pictures! She makes sure to stay in contact if there are any concerns at all; I know I can trust my pups with her. My pups really enjoy when she visits and I think they're wondering where she is on the days she doesn't come to say hello to them. So grateful for Morgan and would highly recommend!”
“Candice went above and behind while checking in on my cats. She did a get job keep my girls taken care of. Everyday she sent a good number of pictures to me so that I could see how they were doing. Her report cards were super detailed which I really appreciated. I would recommend her.”
“Erika did an amazing job taking care of our two dogs and cat. She sent pictures everyday and spent a considerable amount of time with them outside despite the snow storm we had. She was flexible as we extended our trip a few more days and went above and beyond by bringing packages in and taking our trash out. I highly recommend her and we will definitely use her services again.”
“Jill did an amazing job looking after my two kitties! She was on-time, followed instructions, and sent updates with pictures from each visit. She played with them and it was evident from the photos how comfortable they were with her. She provided the peace of mind I need to enjoy a weekend away. Will definitely be booking Jill again!”
“Thank you for the great care you provide to our boys! I appreciate your punctuality and all the great pix you provided for each visit. I was confident I left them in good hands. We hope you will be available next time.”
About: I have grown up with animals my whole life! I’ve had dogs, cats, hamsters, rabbits, and fish! My cat has epilepsy so I am very experienced with administering medication and dealing with special critters 🥰 I would love to take care of your pets! I am currently working part time with a very flexible schedule. I am happy to accommodate your needs whether it’s walks during the day or overnight stays to make sure they are well taken care of. I would love to keep an eye on your animal(s) in the comfort of your own home. Whether you have shy pets or outgoing ones, I’ll have them covered!
“Prompt, responsable, and most importantly, kitty approved! My shy girls hung around for a peek and even let Megan grab a pic. We would highly recommend Megan and will definitely ask her to pet sit for us again.”

About: I’ve had dogs in my house my entire life. I absolutely love taking care of them! I’ve also always helped my friends taking care of their dogs and have dog sit many different breeds. I personally have owned beagles, Labradors, and golden retrievers. With my last two dogs I’ve personally been the one taking care of them mostly all the way from 8 weeks old. I absolutely love taking care of dogs and would love taking care of any breeds! I’m currently a student at University of North Carolina Wilmington. I would be available Tuesdays 12-5, Wednesdays 2-5, Thursdays 12-7, Fridays 1-7, and anytime on Saturdays and Sundays. I currently cannot take care of any dogs in my home.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Stokesdale
Nicole and Justin are dedicated and reliable! My cats and their needs can be a handful. Between quantity, varying personalities, medication and general tasks it was all handled perfectly!!! I even had a new foster that was thrown into the plan last min which created a bit of a panic on my end and they were willing to come by before my trip to address new concerns. I cannot not say enough to justify the peace of mind I was given by them ❤️❤️❤️.

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 Stokesdale 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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. 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.

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.
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.
