“Jamal is a neighbor, right across the street. He's a great guy, and did well letting my dog, Shuri, out into the yard on a tether. But, he somehow got the alarm triggered by not following my instructions, and the alarm company called me while I was in a conference doing videography in front of about 60 people. All in all, he did what I needed for the dog visit.”
“Alishia is a great neighbor and dog sitter! I highly recommend. She was communicative the whole trip and made sure my dog was fed, had time to potty, and even some cuddles. I felt my dog and home was safe with her visiting when I needed her. Even when my dog fell sick, she went the extra mile to keep me posted and checking on her. I’m glad she is local to Chapel Hill and will be using her services again.”
About: Background in Veterinary medicine and animal husbandry. Rebuilding my experience so I can return to the animal world full time! Let me know if you need a helping hand! I'm currently working a full time gig at the moment but I will work out a time. Just give me a shout out and I'll be there! With absolute care as if they are my own. I would follow owner's instructions to the fullest of details. Meet and greets would be very important to establish trust.
“Bella was super communicative and helpful and made me feel super comfortable with leaving my dogs with her. She treated all 4 of my dogs like her own and spoke so sweetly to them, cleaned up after them, and asked questions and updated me when necessary. I will definitely be reaching out to her again if I need my puppies watched again, love her :)”

I do not have a fenced in yard but i do have extra leashes and harnesses as well as friendly cats
“Haley is our go-to pet sitter, and she always does an amazing job! This time was no exception she came by to check on our cat, and as always, she was kind, professional, and communicative. She has checked in on our kitty once before now, and we trust her completely to take great care of our fur baby. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and caring pet care!”
“Emma was wonderful from the first day we communicated!! Very responsive and my dogs could not have loved her more! They were very well cared for while we were away and we’re grateful to have found her!”
“AnnaLaura was the very best!! She cared for our girls and tended to our plants 🤍 we felt so much better about having her to look after our kitties. Highly recommend her!!”
About: I've had pets my whole life. I also worked at a dog groomers, where I learned how to care for others' dogs aside from my own. I am patient and really love animals! I have my own business where I mostly work from home so my schedule is generally up to me. I also have a dog so I have time set aside for taking care of him. I have a backyard and a friendly, calm dog to keep them company. We can also keep them in separate rooms if needed. I can crate your dog if they feel safer there.
About: I've taken care of both cats and dogs since I was 9. Neighbors have relied on me to care for their cat while away for work. Friends have called on me to feed, walk and care for their dog on weekends. And I have worked professionally with dogs, cats and goats since 2017, having also been entrusted with bathing them and giving necessary medication. I'm currently working full time which gives me plenty of time to play with your pups or kitties in the evenings or weekends. I am free most weekdays after 6:30pm and am flexible on weekends. I care for my pets by having adequate food and water always available. I do crate dogs if needed, but follow the lead of the owner. I try to keep a clean space and give lots of love to all pets involved.
“Thank you Katie for popping in Saturday while Todd and I were at my cousin's wedding. And thank you for tolerating Gizmo and his puppy habits :-). Have a Happy Halloween!”

About: I've owned and taken care of dogs my whole life. I house-sit and pet-sit for several family friends and relatives. I'm experienced with all kinds of animals. I've owned a very wide array of animals throughout my life, all the way from farm animals to reptiles, fish, rodents and everything in-between. My favorite animal is dogs of all kinds, but I can take care of other animals. I can do all kinds of medications and any special cares needs that your baby might need. I work from home and make my own schedule so I'm always available to host animals, house-sit animals, or just stop by for play time and potty time as frequently as needed. I have a fur baby of my own who is just over 3 years old and she loves other dogs. I have a fenced in yard where your fur babies can run and play freely. My baby is crate trained but can also be trusted to be left out. We let our dogs get on the furniture and sleep in the bed with us.

I treat all the animals that I care for as one of my very own. I absolutely love all animals!! I am the oldest of my siblings and I have always been a nurturer. Being a nurturer really comes easy to me and helps with this as I appreciate the importance of the well being of your lovely pet. I have done dog sitting for many dogs that have been on a special diet and very sick. I have an open schedule right now and love to take your pets out for some fun! Dog owners have always been very pleased with my skills and such special care for dogs. I have a pretty open schedule as of right now. I am very flexible and would love to discuss some arrangements for dog sitting for your fur babies! I live in a house with lots of room for play! It is a very safe neighborhood with lots of areas to go on a nice walk!

At my home, I provide a pet-friendly environment with a safe, enclosed space where pets can roam and play. I ensure all pets have access to fresh water, food, and regular bathroom breaks. For cats, I make sure their litter boxes are clean and accessible, while dogs receive regular exercise and attention, including walks or playtime. I also offer special care for pets with medical needs, such as administering medications as required. In a client's home, I follow their routine as closely as possible to minimize stress. I make sure to respect the home environment by keeping everything tidy and secure, and I send regular updates and photos to keep owners informed. Whether in my home or theirs, I’m committed to creating a loving, safe, and stress-free experience for the pets I care for.

They have their free roam, I also have a pretty decent sized screen in back porch that they can run around a little in.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
