About: Dogs were a part of my life my entire childhood. Once I had children of my own, we adopted so they can be a part of their family, too. Our pup, Clem, is a 5-year-old rescue who has been in our family since he was a puppy. I work full-time not far from my home. I’m able to walk and care for pups before I head to work each morning and give them lots of time in the evenings, with longer walks and backyard playtime. Weekends are when we explore on a hike or an extended walk along the greenway. I have a fenced yard in a dog-friendly neighborhood. My dog, Clem, plays well with others and loves having friends over. I have a crate on site that can be used for small to medium sized dogs if it makes your baby more comfortable.

Gillian watched my dog for a couple days and did a great job! She always sent an update and pictures and even cleaned up an accident that occurred. We would hire her back in a heartbeat and 100% recommend!

I can’t say enough great things about her care and dedication to our four legged babies. She was attentive, responsive, and very sweet. A true animal lover that my Bandit and Whiskey were instantly attached to. It made going on vacation a lot easier knowing she was there with them. I highly recommend her services.

Keagan was excellent with our two pups Bandit and Lil Man. She did exactly what we asked of her. I loved the photos she took to always assure us the boys were doing well. Would highly recommend her to anyone. Wish we could give her 10 stars. The boys loved her! *We did leave a cash tip*

We have used Rover for over 10 years and Rachel is the absolute gold standard. She uses the entire duration of her visit and sends detailed notes as well as mapping our dog's walks. Our pets are very comfortable with Rachel and we're grateful for the detailed attention, care, and kindness with which she looks after them and creates her well documented check-ins. During our most recent booking, Rachel was incredibly flexible with us when we had an emergency while traveling that extended our stay beyond our initially booked appointments. When that extended stay meant the waste bags we provided ran out she not only brought her own for the rest of the additional visits but actually left us two full extra rolls. She truly goes so far above and beyond and we'll always book with Rachel whenever we have the chance!

About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds. In the past, I've pet sat a Golden Retriever puppy and an Australian Shepherd together, two Australian Shepherds and a Corgi, two Pugs (including a puppy), two Boxers, a German Shepherd puppy, a mixed-breed puppy, and several other dogs. I'm comfortable with energetic puppies, multi-dog households, and providing each pet with the attention, exercise, and care they need to feel safe and happy while you're away. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. On Fridays, I am available all day, making it easy to accommodate longer visits, daycare, or overnight stays. Monday through Thursday, I am typically available after 2:00 p.m. once my classes are finished, and I can also accept bookings between classes when my schedule allows. I do my best to be flexible and work with each client's needs, so don't hesitate to reach out if you're looking for care outside of these hours—I will always do my best to accommodate your pet's schedule. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal as possible. I follow all feeding schedules, provide fresh water, administer medications if needed, and make sure pets get plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. I also keep the home clean by picking up after pets, cleaning food and water bowls, and maintaining litter boxes or outdoor potty areas. I respect my clients' homes by keeping everything tidy, following their instructions carefully, and sending regular updates with photos so they know their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while they're away.

About: My fiance Eric and I have had dogs our whole lives and genuinely enjoy caring for animals, going on walks and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. We are available to take your pet/pets for walks multiple times a day, give them the attention they need, while offering them loving care throughout the day. We have a few greenways in our area where we will take your dog out for long walks. We have a small 15 pound Dachshund that loves company. Your dogs will be free to roam around the house with available food, water, and comfort.

About: I was born an animal lover and have loved caring for them since I can remember. I’ve helped pet sit for many friends and family for years! Dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and fish. I would LOVE to help more people with their sweet pets in the local Wake Forest area. I’m a stay at home mother and homeschooler to our daughter, and have lived in WF since 2020. I’m looking to help bring in some extra income to help our family. All animals deserve respect, kindness, love and dignity and I would be honored to help you care for your loved ones at home however I am able. Animals bring a wealth of joy to my heart! We have a 2 year old cat and a 15 year old chihuahua/terrier mix at home that I have had since she was 1 month old. She is now blind and in kidney failure, so I am experienced with caring for senior pups as well as puppies and all those in between. I know the stress that comes when planning to leave town and needing to plan for your pets to be taken care of and loved on. It’s stressful and can cause anxiety, especially for those that have special and more unique needs. I would love to help relieve some of that stress and anxiety for you if I can! I’m a stay-at-home homeschool mom to our daughter and have a flexible schedule. We live near downtown Wake Forest which enables me to easily pop over when I need to! I have a lot of experience caring for dogs and cats including our own cat and senior dog at home. I know what it takes to care for animals well and I am naturally wired to go beyond expectation when caring for animals. They bring me so much joy and comfort and I would count it a privilege to care for yours.

About: I have a shih tzu of my own who is 16 yrs old, which has allowed me to get comfortable with dogs. I have taken care of many of my friends, family, and neighbors’ pets. I’ve pet sat many dogs and cats and even a frog! I love any opportunity to bond with animals and make them loved :) I am a college student, attending Wake Forest University. I am home for the summer and holidays with lots of free time to care for furry friends! I love to play with pets throwing toys, giving lots of love rubs along with making sure to tend to their biological needs. I am very attentive to each pet and stick to all instructions given by their owners. They know them best!

About: I have taken care of several different types of dogs since I was 10 including three of my own. I have had the responsibility of feeding, watering, walking, and given medication to dogs when needed. I have had several puppies of my own and have also tended to senior dogs. I have had several neighbors repeatedly request my care because of my loving care and reliability. I am very understanding of every owners needs and want to give the best care to their pets. I would have mornings till 7:30 am and evenings after 6 pm to provide care to your pets. I would be available to provide care everyday including the weekends! I have three dogs that I keep in my home. They each have a crate and we have a doggie door for them to go in and out of throughout the day, but I have helped several neighbors and friends who don’t have the doggie door option so they asked me to let the dogs out in their fenced in area and implement walking when requested. I am capable of putting dogs in their crates and easily understand feeding instructions. I strive to make sure that each dog is taken care of in the best way.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with extensive professional and personal experience in pet care. I previously owned and operated my own pet daycare and boarding facility, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. In addition to running a facility, I’ve spent many years caring for my own pets, as well as rescuing and fostering animals in need. Working with rescues has given me experience with shy, anxious, and high-needs dogs — and taught me patience, structure, and how to build trust. I’m comfortable administering medications, managing feeding schedules, supervising play, and maintaining consistent routines. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities, and I treat every animal like family. I am able to accommodate morning and evening potty breaks, playtime, walks and meals as I do have a full-time job where I will be gone from 7:30AM to 4:30PM Monday through Friday but I have large kennels available if pets are needed to be crated and a designated dog room where they can be left out comfortably. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. My home features a fully fenced-in yard for secure outdoor play and is located in a sidewalk-friendly neighborhood for safe, structured walks. I have three friendly, well-socialized dogs of my own, and I always conduct slow, controlled introductions to ensure everyone feels comfortable. Feeding times are handled separately to prevent food guarding or stress, and crating options are available if requested or if a dog feels more secure with their own space. For additional peace of mind, I also utilize camera monitoring when needed to ensure safety at all times. My goal is to provide a calm, structured, and cozy environment where every pet feels safe and cared for.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs since my early teens. I have a strong passion for dogs and love to care for them. I am very accustomed to dogs with behavior issues and bad anxiety because my own dog struggles with that. I can also handle both small and large dogs. I love taking my dogs on walks and also occasionally will find an easy trail to hike on with them. I would love to bring your dogs on nearby trails or stick to easy walks based on the dogs energy levels. I do stay overnight and house sit if requested. I’m currently working part time (short hours 2 days a week) so i’ll have plenty of time to play with and look after your pups! I unfortunately cannot care for your dogs at my own home because one of my dogs is not friendly towards other dogs, but I am more than happy to watch your dogs at your home! I can stay overnight with your dog if requested.

About: Hi! I’m a dependable pet caregiver with professional experience working in dog daycare, boarding, and dog training. I love caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities and always strive to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and keep you updated every step of the way! Pet care is already a regular part of my routine. I plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for to make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and consistent care. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or check-ins, I’m committed to being reliable and giving each pet the time they deserve. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of exercise, playtime, bathroom breaks, and lots of love and attention. I also keep their space clean, monitor their well-being, and provide regular updates so you know your pet is happy and safe while you’re away.

About: I’ve had dogs (and cats and even a bird) for as long as I can remember! I spent a summer working at a doggy day care place and have interacted with all kinds of dogs! My mom’s dog that I’ve had since my childhood has kidney disease and requires extra attention with food and medicine, so I have experience with dogs that have specific needs. I would love to help care for your dogs! I’m currently working on my Masters and have a flexible schedule apart from classes, so I would love to fill my time with some pups during the week! I would love to work with you on scheduling to make sure your pups are taken care of! I love spending time with dogs in whatever way they most prefer! I love to take them on walks or sit on the couch with them and give them belly rubs!

Krista was punctual and super attentive to our dog. During our meet and greet she made it point to ask where the gates were in our backyard to make sure she knew where they were to check they are closed. I appreciated her being knowledgeable about that stuff and made me feel confident with leaving our dog with someone new. She sent lots of photos and gave lots of love to our dog during her visits.

Patti is absolutely fantastic! Our dog is very anxious and had a very big reaction the first night (even though we did a meet and greet). He went a little wild and Patti didn’t even blink an eye. Patti took complete control of the situation and was cool, calm and collected and was able to win him over with a lot of patience! I appreciate how proactive she was in communication, the detail to take care of our babies, and the hilarious report cards. All around a wonderful experience and can’t recommend Patti enough 🙌

Kerry is AMAZING!!! She was a last-minute hire for us, as our normal dog sitter backed out last minute... But Kerry went above and beyond our expectations! She came over early to meet Chip so he could get acclimated with her, confirmed what we were requesting of her, and daily sent us pictures and fun little summaries of what she and Chip did for the day! We have found our new dog sitter, and we recommend her services with the utmost confidence!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Wake Forest

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Wake Forest on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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

As of August 2026, there are 5,025 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Wake Forest. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Wake Forest 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 Wake Forest 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. 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 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 Wake Forest with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
