Sabrina is a rare soul that cares for animals as if they were her own. I have a special needs lab and trust her to care for her when I can’t be there. I’m so appreciative of her professionalism, communication and the care she provides my sweet girl. 6 stars! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

About: Hey! I’m a lifelong animal nerd with 20+ years of hands-on experience — dogs, cats, fish, farm animals… you name it. I’ve done everything from basic care to grooming and handling special needs pets(Diabetes and administering chemo meds). I also have a soft spot for rescues — I’ve taken in more than a few over the years, including cats, dogs, and even birds. Yup… parrot/wild bird experience too. My home is basically a safe-haven full of spoiled, happy furballs and feathers. If you’re nervous about leaving your baby with someone new, totally get it. I’m always happy to chat, send pics/updates, and answer questions so you feel good about who’s caring for your pet. Whether your pet needs walks, cuddles, meds, or just someone calm to hang with while you’re away, I’m here. Reach out any time — I’d love to help. My days revolve around my pets, I work from home so I have availability to be here or there when needed, before my full time job starts up I have even more availability! All my animals are free roam, I have a large fenced in yard, all my cats love all my dogs and vice versa. My house is pet friendly and designed for safety and ease of loving and protecting all my babies.

Incredible as always, puts so much effort in tending to my girls especially when they’ve been in transitions in trying out a new feeder they weren’t adjusting well to, she even tried to download the app for the feeder to get it to work. Really appreciate her dedication, flexibility, and thoughtfulness :)

About: I’ve been working with animals since I was a kid! My family owns and runs a farm so my entire life has been about taking care of animals needs and making sure they are healthy! I have always had an affinity for all pets no matter how big or small! My #1 priority is making sure they’re taken care of, safe, and loved when their parents are gone! I am currently a senior at WCU, but I live here near Greenville and will be here for the whole summer, holidays, and most weekends! I’m currently self-employed and have a lot of extra time on my hands to help take some time off of yours! I have a very large backyard that is fenced in, all my dogs love to run around in it. My furr baby, Cherry, is crate trained and loves to spend most of her time inside!

About: I have taken care of animals big and small, disability’s and special needs included, for many years. I am very flexible and a responsible young adult that would love to spend time with your pet regardless:) I’m currently working full time. I am a very aware and responsible person. I am responsive to unsettling situations without hesitation, and I know many things about an animal's body language and habits overall. I work every weekday 6am-2:30pm and I’m off every weekend. I go to church every Sunday but should be gone no more than 4 hours :) I try my best to establish and follow comfortable boundaries with pet parents and pets alike and I carefully follow instructions left to me to the best of my ability :)

Katlyn did a wonderful job with our babies. She was able to help us out on short notice, which was really appreciated. She seemed very knowledgeable about dealing with many different dog personalities and did really well dealing with Dakota, who is skittish around new people. I would definitely recommend Katlyn to watch your pets.

About: For as long as I could remember I’ve been my family’s go-to pet sitter. Anytime my Grandmother had a doctors appointment or my Aunt and Uncle left town, I would be their first choice. I love animals and caring for them, making them comfortable when their families are gone is not an easy task but easing their anxiety and keeping them comfortable is a very rewarding job. I’ve worked with rover in the past when I was in high school and it was a great experience. I am currently working part time but my schedule is relatively flexible. As far as boarding goes there is and will always be someone at the house caring for the dogs 24/7. I have a large plot of land adjacent to my house for the puppies to play in. I currently have three very friendly small dogs who love to play and make friends.

About: I have always loved caring for animals and treat every pet like a member of the family. While I don’t currently have any pets of my own, that allows me to provide your dog with my full attention and a calm, comfortable environment during their stay. My home features a secure fenced-in patio with pet-friendly turf for outdoor time, and I’m fortunate to have a large dog park directly across the street as well as another dog-friendly area within my neighborhood. Whether your pup enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply relaxing, I can tailor their care to their individual needs. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, and I have also volunteered with animal shelters, giving me a strong understanding of dog safety and behavior. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I would be honored to provide reliable, attentive care for your dog. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I am currently a nursing student and stay at home mom. This allows me to give your fur babies my full attention and lots of love and interactive play! I believe every pet is happiest when their normal routine is maintained as closely as possible. Before each booking, I take time to learn about your pet’s feeding schedule, exercise needs, favorite activities, medications, and any special instructions. In my home, pets receive plenty of supervision, attention, playtime, potty breaks, and a clean, safe environment. Dogs have access to a fenced-in patio with pet turf and can enjoy walks or trips to the nearby dog park if approved by their owner. Cats are provided with a quiet, comfortable space, fresh water, clean litter boxes, and enrichment activities tailored to their personality. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s home. I follow all care instructions carefully, provide regular updates and photos, maintain feeding and medication schedules, clean up after pets, and make sure they receive plenty of attention and affection while their family is away. My priority is always making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners peace of mind.

About: I have always grown up with dogs and cats in my house. I’ve been an animal lover my whole life! I’ve pet sat many times for friend and family. I can assist in medication administration and assist in training as well! I am familiar with pet first aid! I promise to love your fur babies like they are my own! I work as a paramedic and work 24 hour shifts. However, I only am on shift 6-8 days of the month! This makes my schedule fairly open to help out. My schedule does change every month but I can get my schedule ahead of time so I can plan your care needs ahead of time. Please reach out to see if I am available! My baby, Bear, is fairly spoiled with love :) He gets cuddles most of the days when I am off but also is very well trained. He gets lots of play time when I am off and gets to go on many many walks. I plan on treating your babies the same! However, if you have specific rules for your pets I will follow those as well. I am a firm believer in respecting boundaries and routines with your pets. I promise to do my best to keep them happy, healthy and well loved.

About: I have been bringing home and taking in animals ever since 2010 when I was in 5th grade. I have always put a lot of time, patience, love, sweat and money into my own animals. I try to give my babies the best quality of life that I can provide and I intend to do the same while yours are in my care! I have a tremendous amount of love & respect for all animals. I also have a lot of experience with multiple different breeds because I've had numerous dogs, a cat & a leopard gecko. Some duties I can help assist with include potty training, walking, teaching training commands & any senior/special needs care. If needed I can administer oral liquid medications, as well as pills and I can change diapers too. I am a stay at home dog mommy and I run a small business as well. So I generally have a lot of time, love & space to offer at my house throughout the week for guests. I'd love to take care of your babies or walk them to help you out with your busy schedule! !!!NEW DAYCARE INQUIRIES PLEASE READ!!! :) DUE TO HIGH VOLUME OF CLIENTS IVE HAD TO MAKE ADJUSTMENTS TO MY DAYCARE HOURS THEY ARE NOW FROM 8AM-8PM. **My base rate of $35/day ensures your baby with up to 12 hours per day in my care! If you were to need extended daycare time for longer than 12 hours, it is $10/hour per extra hour outside of my set daycare hours. If you were to need to drop-off before 8am I do charge an early bird fee of $10. I also offer custom packages for long-term daycare or odd situations, feel free to inquire and I'd be happy to try and help you! Thankyou so much for taking the time to read this! :)** If receiving in-home care from me I have a very friendly puppy who will keep your baby company. I can assure you your child will be treated as one of my own! Also if they are not pet friendly you can request one-on-one time and I can easily make that happen too. Im all about everyones comfort. :) If providing care in the clients home I will ensure your baby is safe, loved and comforted at all times, I will also abide by all house rules and make sure they're happy, fed & walked!

About: I have worked in pet care for a 9 years (Aug. 2014), and I love what I do. Providing the absolute best care for your pets is my passion, it’s not just a job to me. It is so important to ensure your pet is safe and sound while you’re away from them, and I go the extra mile to make that happen. I have a sit down with the owner to get all the information that I need and to get to know them and their pets I ask if there is anything specific I need to know such as health issues, anxiety, if they are reactive to something specific. I ask questions like do they chew, if they a runner or a climber, do they have allergies, is there a certain certain way to handle them to make them more comfortable, if they have a set schedule, how and when to feed, etc. I ask so many questions because it’s what I need to know to make sure I can properly take care of your baby. I spend time with the pet to observe behavior, movements, if they are shy or outgoing, how to react to loud noises, even their favorite treat or toy, and where they prefer to get rubs and scratches. You can tell a lot about how animal is feeling observing them. And if I have to sing them a lullaby and feed them with a spoon for them to be comfortable, then that is what I will do. I know what it’s like to have a love and deep connection with a pet, so I know how important your babies are to you. I promise I will treat your babies exactly the way I would want my baby to be treated. They deserve it. I am currently working a full-time job, with a very flexible schedule. I have a two hour window during lunch hours, I am available Most days of the week after 5 PM (I get off early one day an I get off early one day a week, )until 7 a.m. and I am available every weekend. I am able to adjust my lunch hours to accommodate your pets needs. Like I said previously, it’s important for me to get to know each pet I care for. Every pet has different needs. The care I give them, will meet each individual pet’s needs.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Tarboro

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Tarboro on Rover is $13.88 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 138 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Tarboro. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Tarboro. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.

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.
