“Katy was great with my dogs and incredibly reliable. I was in Raleigh for 6 weeks for work, and Katy came by every day to check in on my two dogs, including my rambunctious puppy! Excellent communication throughout, knowledgeable, diligent, and trustworthy. I can't recommend her more highly!”

“We are so thankful to have found Kate! She is amazing with our energetic puppy. He absolutely adores her and is thoroughly tuckered out after their walks, playtime and adventures. I have never used a service like Rover before, but Kate immediately put me at ease. I was able to schedule our visits very timely and feel like Kate keeps us updated with how each visit goes. She is cognizant of puppy development and helps to support our training of our pup by using the same language, routines, and providing incredibly helpful tips. She is a lifesaver and I wholeheartedly recommend her services!”

About: All my life, I've had dogs and cats as part of my family. I have a lot of experience with caring for puppies and older dogs and cats as well as feeding, walking, bathing, and playing with other's pets. I'm currently working a part-time job which lets me keep my schedule open and flexible. I'm available mornings and evenings most week days and weekends. Typically, I do my best to keep the pet's routine the same (walking, playing, and feeding times) as well as keeping to special instructions, such as administering medicine or training methods. I'm neat and clean and make sure to keep people's homes tidy with both day visits and overnights. Also, I give people daily updates on their pets while they're away, including photos and daily check-in texts.

About: Call me Joe. My wife and I love animals. We’ve cared for pets our entire life—dogs, cats, birds, and even a chameleon. Originally from Japan, we're skilled at training pets through hands-on experience. We're especially patient with puppies and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. A naturally tidy and organized person, we keep your home and pets happy, safe, and cared for. We share responsibilities together. I usually handle the dog walks, while my wife not only helps me, but she also brings comfort to pets. I currently work multiple jobs, but my schedule is flexible. My wife, Hitoko, also helps with pet care, and together we make a great team. If I need to work in the evening, she is usually home after work to make sure your dog receives attentive and dependable care. We don’t currently have any pets in our home, so visiting pets receive my full attention. We live in a pet-friendly apartment complex with an on-site dog park, providing a safe and welcoming environment for walks and playtime. However, our children may occasionally visit with their pets on weekends or during the holidays, so we prefer dogs that are friendly and comfortable around other animals.

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover and experienced dog owner who would love to care for your pup while you’re away. I’ve had dogs my entire life and currently have two of my own: an 18-month-old purebred German Shepherd and a 3-year-old Shepherd/Husky mix. They’ve given me plenty of hands-on experience with energetic, strong, playful, and sometimes stubborn dogs! I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. Whether your dog needs a long walk, some extra playtime, medication, meals, bathroom breaks, or simply a little companionship while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I understand that every dog has their own routine and personality, and I’ll do my best to keep them comfortable and stick to their normal schedule. One of the biggest advantages I offer is that I work from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility. I’m able to spend substantial time with your dog throughout the day and can accommodate overnight stays when needed. Your dog won’t be left alone for long stretches of time, and I’m happy to provide the attention and companionship they’re used to. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home, and I’ll treat both with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your dog and give them a safe, happy, and comfortable experience while you’re away! I work from home, so pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to take dogs for walks, give them plenty of playtime and attention, and keep up with their regular feeding and bathroom schedules. I’m also available for longer stays and overnight care when needed. Since I’m home throughout the day, your pup can have plenty of companionship rather than being left alone for long periods of time. I’m happy to work around each dog’s individual routine and needs. I currently do not offer boarding in my home because I have two dogs of my own. However, I’m happy to provide pet sitting in your home, where your dog can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment and routine. When caring for a pet, safety and trust are my top priorities. I take the time to understand each dog’s personality, routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions before their stay. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own, and I’ll make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, companionship, and care while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pup is happy, safe, and well cared for.

“Rob was great with our energetic and often temperamental husky. We were going out of town for a whole week and were quite nervous leaving our pup for so long, but Rob was quite communicative and attentive. Our dog seemed very receptive to him and Rob even did great on getting some healing ointment on a pesky hot spot. Will absolutely be reaching out to him again in the future!”

About: I have taken care of many dogs and cats, from high school to present, when friends and relatives have relied on me to walk dogs and change litter boxes. Now, I love to play with my friends' dogs and go for walks around the neighborhood! I am currently on research time in residency which means more flexibility, working partially from home, and more time to take care of your pets! My schedule varies week to week, and include time working from homes and gaps when I can take pets on walks. I have a fenced in back yard and fairly spacious one bedroom in a walkable neighborhood, centrally located, and perfect for a walk around the block, leisurely long stroll, or multiple night stay! For walks, I also like to go to Eno state park or other nearby trails to tire your pup (and myself) out. For pet sitting in your house, I am organized, respectful, and clean. Your pet will get lots of play time and belly rubs!

“Natalie was GREAT!! Our cats LOVED her, probably more than they like us even! She was able to coax our very curmudgeonly elderly cat out from her hiding place and interact with her on each of the home visits! Natalie took great photos and shared pertinent and expansive notes about her home visits, too, which put us at ease as we vacationed. Would definitely book again! (Oh, and she brought in our delivered packages while we were away, without prompting, which was much appreciated!)”

About: Hi there! I’m Audra, a lifelong animal lover with a natural ability to connect with pets of all personalities. Whether I’m caring for a shy kitty, an energetic pup, or a senior pet who needs a little extra attention, I always make sure they feel safe, understood, and loved. Why pets love me: I’m patient, gentle, and tuned in to each pet’s unique needs I give plenty of playtime, cuddles, and positive reinforcement I’m great at reading body language and helping pets feel comfortable I keep routines consistent so pets feel secure while you're away I spent a lot of time volunteering at an animal shelter, where I worked with everything from energetic puppies and playful kittens to shy, misunderstood, or special-needs pets. That experience taught me how to read body language, build trust, and adapt to each animal’s unique needs. At home, I have a senior dog who has taught me so much about patience, compassion, and the extra care our older pets deserve. I’m very comfortable with administering medications, sticking to specific routines, and giving the gentle support older dogs need to stay comfortable and happy. I am a healthcare professional with a huge love for animals and a schedule that gives me plenty of time to care for your pets. I work three days a week, which means I have four full days open for walks, drop-ins, and quality time with your furry family member. Why owners trust me: Excellent communication, with updates and adorable photos Dependable and detail-oriented (special diets, meds, routines—I've got it!) Respectful of your home and your pet’s personal comfort Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s something I love. I treat every pet like family, and I’m here to make your time away easy and stress-free. I can’t wait to meet your furry best friend! 🐶🐱💛

About: I've taken care of animals since I was 7 years old. What sets me apart is the genuine care I give to every pet. I focus on personalized attention, clear communication with owners, and creating a calm, loving environment so pets feel safe and happy while you're away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I schedule my day around visits, walks, feeding times, and play so each pet gets reliable care and attention. I treat every pet like family. I follow their usual routine for meals, walks, and playtime so they feel comfortable while their owner is away. I also provide lots of attention, love, supervision and updates so both pets and owners feel safe and at ease.

About: Hi! I’m a student who loves animals but unfortunately can’t have my own right now, so I’d love to spend some time with yours! 💖 I’ve been dog walking and sitting since high school, as well as having grown up with dogs! I love getting outside and staying active. Happy to walk or run with your dogs depending on their energy level. I’m reliable, caring, and super excited to get to meet your pups! 🐶💖 I am currently in school and have the largest availability at night or on weekends! However, my schedule can be variable during the week so feel free to reach out during weekdays as well! ☀️ I can adapt to the environment of your home! I’m happy to hang out with your pets, crate them as needed, and take them out in the neighborhood. If your pets are big cuddlers, I am too! And if they prefer some distance, I’m happy to coexist and make sure all their needs get met!

Sarah is our go-to cat sitter and we’ve been so happy with her every time. She follows every instruction carefully, including the more complicated ones around separating the cats, and took extra time with my more anxious cat, which really helped him settle while we were away. Sarah is very reliable, thorough, and clearly cares about the animals in her charge!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Windy Hill Farm

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 .

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 , 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
