“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!”

“Michael took care of my 2 kittens for a week while I was gone. He is a wonderful photographer and sent me adorable pictures and videos each visit. He didn’t only feed them but he also played with them and gave them lots of attention. I can’t say enough good about him. The best!”

About: I love cats and dogs, and have had cats most of my adult life. I believe animals are truly family members and should be treated with gentleness and respecting their nature. I have no problem following detailed instructions, and every visit I take pics to show you your fur baby is being well cared for! I am free most mornings before 8:30am and in the evenings after 6pm. On weekends I have more flexibility in my schedule. I’ll be happy to work with you on whatever your scheduling needs are! If a client discusses a list of instructions, I’ll do my best to follow them to the letter. Otherwise, I’ll follow what to me is ideal care for an animal: ensuring they have clean and fresh water, proper food, cleaning litter boxes or taking a dog out for a walk as needed, and spending a little time cuddling and playing (respecting how shy they might be!). If a pet is too shy to play, sometimes I’ll just spend a few minutes sitting on the floor and talking to them in a soothing voice so they can get used to my presence as someone who is friendly. If approved beforehand, I can even bring (or use your own) a few treats! I may also reach out to you if I see something that I think needs addressing (not enough food or litter, a pet seeming lethargic or coughing excessively etc.). If that happens, I’ll discuss with you how you want to handle it. In case of illness, I take my own cats to Wentworth Animal Hospital so, for example, if I saw your cat seemed to be vomiting excessively, if you approved it I would have no problem taking them in for a walk-in and working out the payment and a reasonable rate with you over the phone. The most important thing is to ensure that your fur baby is given the best care possible. :-)
“In all of our years owning pets, we have never felt so at ease leaving our pets for a week. Candice is an intelligent, intuitive, and attentive pet sitter. We truly cannot recommend her enough. Our cats will miss her. 10/10”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 11 years old. Family, friends and neighbors have entrusted me to come into their homes to feed, let out, clean up and give lots of attention and love to their pets. I am a teacher’s assistant at an elementary school, so I’m available early mornings and anytime after 3:30 during the week. I’m also available on weekends and during the summertime. I’m currently unable to take pets in my home as I have my own sweet Labrador Retriever and Australian Labradoodle and an adorable cat, but I’m available to travel to your residence to take excellent care of your pets.

I care for animals all day, everyday I do have a fenced in yard and my pets are all up to date on vaccines, heartworm, flea, and tick preventions.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and understand the importance of keeping pets comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m attentive to routines, patient with different temperaments, and committed to providing reliable care and attention. I have a flexible schedule since most of my classes are online, which allows me to be available for reliable drop-in visits throughout the week. I’m committed to being punctual, attentive, and making sure pets receive the care, attention, and routine they’re used to while their owners are away. I prioritize keeping pets safe, comfortable, and stress-free by maintaining their normal routine during each visit. I always follow owner instructions carefully and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, fresh water, meals, exercise, and care while their owners are away.
About: I love dogs and cats! I have 2 dogs of my own and I will treat your pets like I want mine to be treated! I care about them just like you do!

I go to church on Sunday mornings. I will be available as much as possible! You can trust me. I send updates and pictures. I learn as much as possible during our meet and greet. I am willing to learn about your pet, take good notes for our time to be successful and FUN!
About: I've grown up with dogs all my life. My dog is now a senior but we adopted her as a puppy. Due to my dogs age and health complications that come with it, I've gained experience with senior care. This includes light stretches, red light therapy, medication, etc. Watching her grow up gave me the incentive to support other pet parents by making sure their pets are taken care of while they're away. I've watched a family friend's 4 cats for the past 4 years, as well as 2 others. I enjoy what I do, and I'd love to extend my services to you! I'm currently working part-time, so outside of work, your pet will be my number one priority! I can stop by in the morning and afternoon for at least 1 hour each, spend quality time with them, clean up if necessary, and make sure they're comfortable for the evening before heading out. When I arrive, I'll greet your pet at the door or, if applicable, at their kennel. I'll look around and do any easy clean up, let them outside to potty or clean up litter boxes, make sure food and water are good, and then spend some quality time with your baby. I like to be active, so I'll take him/her on walks, play in the yard, or just chill about if they aren't keen on the sweat. Either way, I'll engage and make sure they're ok!
About: Hi! My name is Aaniyah, and I’m a passionate animal lover with both professional and hands on experience caring for pets and farm animals. I’ve worked at several pet boarding and daycare facilities, where I cared for both dogs and cats, supervised group play, provided one-on-one attention, and made sure every pet felt safe, loved, and comfortable. I also gained valuable experience at the NCAT farm, where I worked with farm animals and learned about animal behavior, nutrition, and health. These experiences taught me responsibility, patience, and how to care for animals in different settings. I have skills in oral and injected medication administration, applying eye drops, and caring for diabetic dogs. I’m also experienced with senior pets and making sure they get the extra patience and care they need. Whether it’s a puppy full of energy, a senior dog who needs medication, or a cat who just wants cuddles and quiet company, I’ll tailor my care to their needs. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Since I’ve worked at multiple boarding and daycare facilities, I’m used to building my schedule around feeding, walking, and playtime. I’m flexible and can adjust to your pet’s routine—whether that means early morning walks, medication at a certain time, or evening play before bed. I’m not offering in-home boarding at the moment, so all of my services are focused on caring for pets in their own homes. I make sure to follow your care instructions closely and keep your pet’s routine consistent so they feel safe and comfortable. Whether it’s feeding, walking, administering medications, or giving extra playtime, I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and the same care I’d want for my own.
About: For 15 years, I've been caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities—and I believe every pet deserves a little VIP treatment! Think of my approach as a mix of loving home, pet spa, and adventure camp. Whether your pet loves belly rubs, puppy massages, squeaky toys, long walks, outdoor adventures, or simply curling up for a cozy nap, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I've cared for energetic puppies, helped reinforce basic puppy training over an extended stay, and provided gentle, compassionate care for a senior dog during his final days. I understand that every pet has unique needs, routines, and comfort levels. My home is pet-ready with a toy box, cozy orthopedic dog bed, treats (with your approval!), and a supervised balcony with artificial grass for fresh air and people-watching. There's even a dog park just a short walk from my back door! I also enjoy taking pets on adventures—from neighborhood walks and nearby trails to scenic car rides when the weather isn't ideal, always with your permission. Need a special meal prepared, a bath, medication administered according to your instructions, or extra TLC? Let's talk about your pet's needs and what I can comfortably accommodate. My goal is simple: Your pet should feel like they're on vacation while you're away—and you should feel confident they're in loving hands. I primarily work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide plenty of companionship, attention, and personalized care throughout the day. I typically plan walks, potty breaks, and playtime every 3–4 hours, but I'm happy to adjust based on your pet's age, energy level, health, and established routine. My days can include morning walks, afternoon play sessions, cuddle breaks, enrichment activities, and evening wind-down time. For pets who enjoy exploring, I'm always up for an approved outdoor adventure or scenic car ride! Because I'm home much of the day, your pet won't just be waiting around for attention. They'll be part of my daily routine, with plenty of opportunities for interaction, exercise, rest, and affection. Whether your pet is a high-energy explorer or a professional couch companion, I'll work to make their stay feel comfortable, familiar, and fun. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I know how much trust it takes to leave a beloved family member in someone else's care, and I take that responsibility seriously. In my home: Pets enjoy a comfortable, welcoming apartment with toys, an orthopedic dog bed, cozy resting spots, and a supervised balcony with artificial grass for enjoying fresh air. There's a dog park just outside my building, and I provide regular walks and outdoor play based on your pet's needs and comfort level. I follow your instructions regarding feeding, treats, medications, exercise, sleeping arrangements, and routines. I always ask about allergies, dietary restrictions, behavioral considerations, and anything that might make your pet anxious or uncomfortable. In your home: I respect your space and your pet's established routine. My goal is to keep their environment familiar and minimize disruption while providing reliable, attentive care. I never assume that every pet enjoys the same activities. Dog parks, trail walks, car rides, interactions with other animals, and special treats are always discussed with you first. I'm also happy to share photos and updates so you can see how your pet is doing while you're away. Most importantly, I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and affection—as though they're part of my own family.
About: If you need caring, compassionate, reliable, loving service for your furry sweethearts I am available to make them the center of attention. With me they get a bit of a holiday themselves. My work takes me oceanside for extended periods: so when I’m available to house/pet sit for you, I am devoted to all their needs. Presently I am auntie to several cats and dogs that for more than a decade I have been house/pet sitting. I have also cared for horses, goats, chickens, geese and peacocks. I love learning animal’s individual personalities and ingratiating myself in to their familial pack. In my life I have owned a German Shepherd, a Malinois and a Husky as well as numerous cats. I grew up walking the dog, so I prefer to exercise the canines regularly. Playtime for everyone will include some brushing. I have no problems giving oral medications or injections. And I have cared for sick animals of my own as well as others. My entry in to your home will be with complete respect, integrity and detailed consideration. My references will tell you how I am attentive not only to your pets but your home: be it garden or plant care, and most especially having your home be as if you had never left upon your return.
“there’s not enough words to express how well Jenna and Shane took great care of my three “big personalities” puppers—2 Boxers and a Lab. definitely recommend them and will forever choose them whenever i need a dog sitter ??.”

About: I’ve personally had dogs my whole life! I have experience with caring for senior dogs as well as puppies. I have a special place in my heart for labs, but I love them all! I’ve yet to meet a dog I don’t like. As a dog owner myself, caring for pets is part of my everyday life. I love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. For boarding, I offer Thursday evening drop-offs, and pets must be picked up by Sunday. This helps me ensure each pet gets the best care possible during their stay In my home, pets are treated like family. I have two friendly dogs of my own, Sunny and Ruby, so I understand the importance of maintaining a safe, loving, and structured environment. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication administration (if needed), and plenty of affection and attention. I also make sure pet parents receive regular updates and photos so they can feel confident their furry family member is happy and well cared for
About: I have taken care of my neighbors dogs and cats and occasionally they have asked me to house sit. I am very reliable, and I LOVE animals. I will take care of your pet as if he/she is my own. With me, your pets would be in GREAT hands, and you wouldn’t have to worry about the fees of the kennel. I am able to administer medicine if needed and I am able to provide CPR and First Aid I currently work a full time job but I am available Monday through Thursday after 4:30 and Friday after 2:30. I am available weekends as well and can work whenever needed I will take care of your pet and give them whatever they need. I will give them plenty of play time and cuddles and I will feed them and give them fresh water whenever they eat or come inside. I will give them medicine if needed as well

Pet 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 ❤️❤️❤️.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Stokesdale is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $24 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,525 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Stokesdale. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .
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 , 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
