About: I’ve grown up with dogs almost my entire life, so caring for animals has always been a big part of who I am! For the past 5 years, I’ve been pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and family, giving me experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies who need extra attention and playtime to sweet senior dogs who need a little more patience and care, I love them all! I also have a big dog back home named Hank, so large breeds definitely don’t intimidate me! Whether your pet is big or small, young or old, I’m happy to give them all the love and attention they deserve. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll treat your furry family members just like they’re my own! I am a full time student but my class schedule is flexible and gives me plenty of time for visits and time to take care of your pups multiple times throughout the day. One of my biggest priorities when caring for your pets is making sure they feel as comfortable, relaxed, and loved as possible! I know every pet has their own personality and routine, so I always do my best to match the energy and environment they’re used to at home. Whether that means lots of playtime, long walks, extra cuddles, or simply having someone there to keep them company, I’m happy to do whatever makes them feel most at ease! I understand that being away from their owners can sometimes be stressful for pets, so I want to be a familiar, comforting presence they can count on. My goal is to keep their routines as normal as possible and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for every step of the way.

I’ll follow your instructions closely and do my best to make sure your pets feel cared for while you’re away! I am a college student so I do have a few classes during the week, as well as lab hours. But I am available most mornings, afternoons, and evenings to either do check-ins, feedings, or walks I’m happy to care for pets in the comfort of their own home, where they can feel safe and familiar in their environment. I understand how important it is to trust someone with both your pets and your home, and I take that responsibility seriously.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember! Growing up, I rescued many animals and helped my grandma foster tiny kittens and puppies, which gave me hands-on experience caring for animals of different ages and needs. I have a genuine love for all animals and take their safety and well-being very seriously. I have a strong understanding of proper animal care, common household foods and substances that can be toxic to pets, and how to recognize and respond to emergency situations. I’m patient, attentive, and dedicated to making every animal feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every pet as if they were my own and want every owner to feel confident knowing their babies are in good hands! I have a flexible schedule and do my best to accommodate each pet’s needs! Between my classes and nanny job, I’m able to plan ahead and work with pet owners to find times that fit both of our schedules. I’m happy to provide consistent, reliable care and make sure your cat’s routine is maintained while you’re away. Whether you need drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, or some extra love and attention for your pet, I’ll do my best to make it work! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it my priority to keep every animal safe, comfortable, and happy in their familiar environment. I follow each pet’s usual routine, including feeding, providing fresh water, exercise, playtime, cleaning up after them, and following any special care instructions their owners provide. Having grown up around and caring for many different animals, I understand that every pet has unique needs, personalities, and comfort levels. I give them plenty of love and attention while respecting their individual boundaries. I also pay close attention to their behavior and well-being, keep their spaces clean and safe, and provide updates and pictures so owners can feel at ease while they’re away. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they feel loved and cared for!
About: I have owned dogs, cats, turtles, and various rodents throughout my entire life and I have always cherished animals. I have received my veterinary assistant certification from Craven Community College and I have over 2 years of pet sitting experience. I understand that pets are not just animals. They are our family and deserve to be treated as such. I am very experienced with pet care. I have cared for pets throughout my entire life and I find it therapeutic to care for and love all animals. I work about 3 days a week so my schedule is very open. I am a full time student but I only have 2 classes a day and I have lots of free time. Most people say I spoil my dog. I have always felt connected to animal and I fully believe that they are “people” just like us. For me, a pet is like a child. They require just as much love. I would never put an animals in harms way. I hold them to the same standard as humans.
About: In my 5 years of watching animals, I have found a passion in taking the best care of them and making them feel comfortable in their own homes. I have dealt with stressful dogs all the way to the outgoing kinds and know how to comfort them in anyways I can. I also have experience with training puppies and keeping up with them! Along with watching the animals, I am also there for you so if you have any plants that need watered or trash taken out I will happily do that for you! I am a Sophomore at East Carolina University and I do have classes Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday! I only have 1-2 classes a day that are not longer than an hour! My top priority is making sure they are comfortable and not stressed with their owners being gone. I ask the owners if they have any ways of calming them down and what their daily routine is. I mold my schedule to what the animals are used to so they aren’t dealing with a big change.

I am also available on weekends if you need an overnight sitter, and can stop in and check on your animals as many times as needed. I do not have a fenced in yard and would require a lease and harness for them to be taken out. This would make me feel better as nothing would happen to them. I live by a stop sign so cars do not come by fast but they do go by right in front of the house. I have trained my dogs to go nowhere near the front yard for safety reasons.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 335 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Whitehurst. 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 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 with handling special pet needs in Whitehurst. On Rover:
- 90% 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.
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.
