“Calvin joined our family about a month ago- my dog Charlie, as well as son Sidney, and I have all grown accustomed to and enthusiastically welcome Calvin's presence in our home. Charlie looks delighted every time Calvin comes over, and the pics he sends to me of he and Charlie playing brings a smile to my face knowing that even though I can't be there myself all of the time to play, I find comfort knowing that Charlie has grown to love Calvin in my absence. And...the fact that Calvin served in the US Army is an additional bonus, as I know he understands the importance of responsibility as well as accountability.”
“Alicia you were amazing!!! Thank you for taking such great care of my babies. They were perfectly happy and content when I got back and it’s because they had you to check in each day. You made this long trip bearable for all of us. The boys and I look forward to seeing you on the next trip!!”
About: I've got multiple years of experience handling a highly anxious dog that can be dog selective during high stress situations. I was the one primarily training my family's two dogs, as well as the one taking them out on as many walks as I was able. I have multiple years worth of experience with senior dogs that had arthritis and who needed to have their food prepped especially for easier eating. I'm currently a student at the University of Georgia and currently looking into part time summer positions, however my schedule is very flexible with daily check-ins and overnight stays during both the week and weekend are very doable. During check-ins, outside of ensuring food and water are available, I would make sure to spend time playing and hanging out with any dog and if I have time to take them on a walk I will. For overnights, I would do the same thing with the only difference being the amount of time I'd be able to spend with the dog.
“I am very impressed with Linda. During our meet and greet, she was attentive and asked all the right questions. During my trip, it was apparent that my cats were receiving wonderful care from the pictures and summary she sent after each visit. Linda is a pro and I highly recommend her.”
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and other pets for last 8 years in my local community. I’m excited to expand to new clientele! I am currently a Graduate student at the University of Georgia and will be off for the summer and available at any time required for service. I typically visit 3-4 times a day, and can stay overnight if requested. I can take dogs on walks as many times as needed, and I will make your pet my priority in my day-to-day schedule. I am not able to bring pets to my home, but I will follow any requirements or schedules needed for your pet, in your home, so that they are able to be at peace while you are away.
About: I have been a big animal lover since I was little. I started pet sitting for friends and family in high school and I started volunteering at my local animal shelter in college. I currently am an Animal Care Tech at UGA and work with animals like cats, dogs, and mice daily! I am also very comfortable administering most medications I currently work full time as an Animal Care Tech at UGA from 8-4 on M-F so I can care for your pet early mornings or in the afternoon/evenings! If you need someone during the weekdays to let your pet out frequently (they can’t go 8 hours without a bathroom break) I may not be the sitter for you. I have more availability to let them out during weekends, but if you have any questions just shoot me a message! Safety is my #1 concern when it comes to your pet! I have many years of animal care experience and I am trained to handle most safety issues when it comes to animals. I want to treat your pet like they’re my own!
“Olivia looked after our 2 dogs and she was always on time for walks and feeding.. I had pictures of my dogs every single day on how they were do.I would definitely use Olivia again. Olivia was quickly to respond to any phone calls or texts that I sent. Great person to watch your babies”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for about 5 years now, from dogs to frogs! Some of my own and some from others I give each animal the love and care that they deserve. I love being outdoors in any climate whether that be hiking, jogging, or simply sitting in a field. I’d be more than happy to burn some energy with your fur baby! I work part time during the night which leaves lots of free time during the mornings to walk, feed, and check in on your pets. I occasionally have classes during the week, so I’ll already be up bright and early! I will provide your pets with loving attention, frequent walks and bathroom breaks, even playtime. I am sure to create a safe environment for your fur babies, if that means a mini play date or introduction session before sitting I am down for it all. I will stay loyal to the given instructions with proper feeding times and administer medication if/when needed.
About: While I've had pets my entire life, I've professionally cared for the animals of others for nearly 10 years. While I was in the Army, I fostered for a local rescue and did the basic training and socialization for young, abandoned puppies to get them ready for forever homes. While pursuing my BS of Animal Science at ISU (Class of '19) I worked at Lloyd Veterinary Medical Hospital with equines of all ages, and spent several years as professional Animal caretaker working at the USDA with small animals. I have experience with dogs and cats, young and old, as well as rodents and other small animal pets, geckos, and freshwater aquarium fish. I am semi-retired, and work my own hours part time so schedule is flexible and it's easy for me to fit your pet(s) into my daily life Your pets will be most comfortable in their own environment, and I am committed to caring for them in a way most similar to what they are accustomed to.
About: Hi, I’m Phoebe! I’m a college student and a lifelong animal lover. Since having a pet of my own isn’t realistic right now, I love spending time caring for other people’s pets through Rover. I grew up with an Alaskan Malamute and was heavily involved in his care, from daily walks and outdoor adventures to plenty of cuddle time and attention at home. I also grew up with cats and have always loved their unique personalities, whether that means playtime, affection, or simply keeping them company. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets, and I’ll treat yours with the same care, patience, and attention I would give my own. Spending time with animals genuinely brightens my day, and I’m grateful for every opportunity to get to know a new furry friend. I currently work on Mondays from 11-4 and Tuesdays thru Thursdays from 8-1 at the City Hall in Athens! I live close by and can stop by before or after work on most days! I do my best to follow your instructions closely so your pet can stay on their normal routine and feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible. I also love sending photos and updates from my visits so you can stay connected and know your pet is in good hands.
About: I grew up with all kinds of pets - dogs, cats, birds, fish, and even corn snakes! I always take pictures of them and adore all animals! I am currently a student at UGA, only taking classes on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. I am free for you pets at any time! I can take your pets on as many or as little walks as they please! I live in an apartment complex that is very pet friendly and has a dog park a quick walk away. I also have another friendly dog in the apartment to keep any dogs good company! They are also welcome on any furniture. In your home I will respect any rules you have and still create a fun environment for your fur baby.
About: From lizards to dogs & cats, I have been taking care of pets ever since I can remember. In recent years, I have cared for my family's elder dog Molly. Along side our puppy (whose not so puppy anymore) Bella. I am currently enrolled at The University of Georgia, where I live and care for 2 very fun cats, Juno and Ziggy. There are many times where I am the first to go to whenever any family member or friend needs care for their pet/pets. I am currently in the process of getting a part time job, so I am available at nearly all times of the day to care for pets. I will adhere to any instruction given to the dot. Whether it be closing doors at specific times or only letting them roam in a specific area, no matter the rules to care for a pet in or around ones home, I will follow exactly.
About: Watching pets and homes for years! I have been trusted by many across the country to care for their pets, homes and more to the fullest extent ! I work from 8am-12pm and 245-6pm weekdays ! I am free in the mornings, afternoons and evenings. I am free fulltime all day on weekends! I can easily crate your pets, feed them on schedule, and play with them to the fullest extent! I will treat them as my own!
About: I have had the privilege of growing up in a dog-living home and have been blessed with furry friends my whole life. When I was about 10, I realized that I could be my dog's favorite if I walked her, fed her, and played with her. So, I did just that. I have always been the person my neighbors asked to dog-sit and I have volunteered at animal shelters for many years! I just graduated from the University of Georgia and just moved back to Nashville. I have a part-time job right now, and I would love to hang out with and take care of your pup(s) in my free time! Your pup will be well taken care of, safe, and loved. I would love to watch your dog for the day, or overnight at your home, if needed!
“Stephanie did a great job of taking care of my five fur babies while we were gone! We also had a new kitten who was scared and Stephanie won her over by the end. She also won over my grumpy old man cat. Appreciate the daily pictures and for doing the extra chore of taking our trash out. So happy to have a neighbor in Colbert that we can trust!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 842 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Winterville. 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 Winterville 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 Winterville 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 Winterville 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 Winterville. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
