About: I have taken care of pets (cats, dogs and birds) all my life. I have ample experience with dogs, including puppies…we had 10 rescue puppies at one point in time! I’m super patient and accommodating with our 4 legged friends as I have 3 full sized dogs and 2 cats myself. I have a full time job but am able to provide care in the evenings and weekends. I have a fenced dog lot and 1.5 acres to walk your fur baby (leashed) as well as access to a private country road. I have three full sized dogs and two cats in my own home. My home is large enough to separate pets as needed and to allow for ample play room if everyone gets along. I can let your pets out or take them for walks at your home as well.
About: As a dog sitter, I specialize in personalized care tailored to each dog's needs. Whether it's training puppies, providing specialized care for seniors, or simply offering companionship, I prioritize the well-being and happiness of every furry friend in my care. On weekends, I seamlessly integrate pet care into my routine, considering the needs of my own two dogs alongside those of any additional pets under my care. This involves coordinating activities to ensure each dog receives individualized attention, exercise, and affection. From group walks to supervised playtime and separate feeding schedules, I prioritize harmony and balance to create a positive and enriching environment for all furry companions. In both my home and clients' homes, I offer comprehensive pet care tailored to the specific needs of each furry friend. This includes regular feeding, exercise, playtime, grooming, and administering any necessary medication. Additionally, I maintain a clean and safe environment, provide companionship, and follow any special instructions provided by the pet owner. Whether it's overnight stays, daily visits, or dog walking services, I prioritize the well-being and happiness of every pet entrusted to my care.
About: I love animals and grew up with animals. I have a dog, have worked and currently work with dogs, and have taken care of dogs before. I'm usually working at least 4-5 days a week, mostly from 2-7pm and most weekends. But I can help out during the weekdays before 2 and sometimes after 7. I also go to college 2 days a week during the morning and usually leave around 12:30pm. I have a dog and shes has always been an outside dog. But she has stayed around my house and doesn't go anywhere or run off anywhere.
“Sebrena was absolutely amazing! She popped in to take care of our dogs while I was gone on a work trip and they love her. Sebrena, thank you again for going the extra mile when we had issues with our door lock, and we'll definitely contact you for the next work trip!”

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs in my lifetime. I love to be outside and active. I will take the best care of your furry loved one. I am currently available most days, except for a few select throughout the summer. I look forward to scheduling days/times that work best for you and your furry friend. I have a spacious yard with plenty of room to play outside. It is unfenced and based on your preferences I will keep your friend safe at all times. I live in a spacious neighborhood with lots of space to walk. We even have a creek for swimming! I have one medium size dog in my home who is kind and can keep your pet company.
“My cats really warmed up to Trina, and enjoyed each day that she came to take car of them. I really enjoyed all the pictures I received. She did great with the care she gave!”

“We have hired Lisa on more than one occasion to care for our cats because of her attention to detail, responsiveness, promptness and for the overall care she provides to our boys. She keeps us up to date during our absence with messages & photos. Upon our return the boys are happy, stress-free & healthy. I highly recommend Lisa for your sitting needs.”

“They were patient with us even though we forgot to give them the door code before they arrived, and they stayed longer than we booked to make sure everyone was happy and comfortable! Will definitely book again”

“Ariane was dependable and came every day as expected while I was gone on vacation. She sent me updates and notes on my two cats and made me feel very comfortable with her being there to take care of them. She also sent plenty of pictures! In addition, she fed my fish and watered my plant. Would recommend her! Thank you, Ariane!”

About: Owned a dog since forever. Currently have 2 shelties-3yrs and 1yrs old. But have taken care of dogs all breeds, sizes, ages, and stages of life. I am currently taking a break from my career to reset, recharge, and just enjoy life with my 2 young Shelties. Daily we walk, run, play. It is part of our life. Cat wise my cats care is part of our daily routine. I spoil them and have cat trees in windows for them to watch the neighborhood and provide them with all their favorite toys. Walking and drop in service wise- let me know times, dates, ways to enter the house. If able I would love to bring my dogs to join. If not that is fine. I am willing to walk as much and as long as needed. Drop in share what you need and I will help. I can also give medications if needed.
“Valerie was awesome, and very attentive to our fur babies. She went above and beyond to make sure they were taken care of, and that we were aware of anything concerning that came up!”

About: I love caring for dogs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. I’m patient with dogs of all sizes and personalities and always follow feeding schedules, provide regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention so every dog feels at home. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most days of the week, including weekends. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, walks, and playtime throughout the day. I’m happy to work with different schedules and last-minute bookings whenever possible I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Since I don’t have a fenced yard, I take dogs on regular walks for exercise, potty breaks, and fresh air. I also provide plenty of attention, playtime, and follow the pet’s normal feeding schedule and routines. My goal is to make pets feel relaxed and at home while their owners are away.

About: I have taken care of pets and houses for friends and family on many occasions and would love to care for your pets while you’re away. I will be available as often as needed to take care of your pets. I can be flexible to work with you for your pet’s needs. I feed and walk my dog and my past clients dogs twice daily. Additionally, I provide enrichment play for both cats and dogs each day I watch them.
About: I’ve had a pet all my life. I’ve worked professionally with dogs for the past 3 years. I have a cat of my own as well. I’ve worked at a dog boarding facility as well as a doggy daycare. Currently, I have an internship Thursday-Sunday, 5 hours each day. I’m available every evening/afternoon after my internship. I’m also available Monday-Wednesday at any time. :) I love spending time with furry friends, so I’m happy to fulfill whatever needs your pets may have! I love high energy walks and playing an intense game of fetch or tug of war, but I also love spending time with fur babies that may not be as energetic and may just want to relax or go on a slow paced stroll!
About: I have had pets since I was a little girl. Started out with cats, and then when I was 9 I got my first dog. Ever since then I’ve had 5 dogs total, and around 10 cats since I was little as well. I am well versed on how to take care of both and my dog Shiloh has helped me a lot in this :) I am a counselor most days of the week but I have time in the morning and evenings most days and weekends I’m usually free. I’m here for most holidays and throughout the summer as well! I am willing and able to walk the doggos, feed them and give them water, let them out for potty breaks, brush them and wash them if needed, and taking them to the dog park is an option as well. I know how to care for cats in giving them space when needed and attention when needed, feeding and giving them water, and any other tasks I’m asked to do, as well as picking up poop.
“Selena was able to watch my cat with only three days notice. My regular sitter canceled at the last minute before my vacation. My cat was happy and healthy when I returned home. The feeding schedules were a little different than he was used to because we were squeezed in at the last minute.”

About: I have years of experience of animal handling. I have worked as a zoo educator and have pet sat for years. I have a passion for animals and their well being. I’m available most days for visits and overnight stays. You can contact me through the app and I will get back to you as soon as possible. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my priorities while caring for them. I’m experienced and comfortable with administering medication (oral and injections). I have stayed overnight for clients many times and have a few repeat clients.
About: I have cared for dogs for a little over six years and have a lot of experience with them. I am a dog lover and know exactly how to keep them happy and healthy while their families are away! I am currently working part-time, so I will have more than enough time to care for your home, pups, and anything else you may need! I care for pets by ensuring that they are always given food and water, going outside frequently, and having someone to play with hem and pet them.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Thaxton
Liz was absolutely wonderful, and our fur babies adored her. Since moving to Bedford three years ago, this was the first time we needed someone to help care for them—and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We have five cats and one dog, and typically, the cats vanish whenever someone new enters the house. But Liz was the exception—they greeted her each day like an old friend. I loved receiving photos that showed just how happy and loved they were. Without a doubt, we’d welcome Liz back in a heartbeat.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 298 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Thaxton. 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 Thaxton. On Rover:

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.
