“Russell was incredibly attentive and communicative while taking care of our cats! He took pictures at each visit and kept us up to date on what was happening with them. I would highly recommend his services!”
“Sara goes above and beyond each visit. Our dog fell victim to an illness and Sara was the first to identify. She prompted us immediately which allowed us to take action and take our pup in to the vet. Sara continued to provide care for our sick pup and clean up multiple accidents for us and provide us updates. Sara is someone that you can trust to ensure your dog or cat is provided with the best care.”
“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!!”
“Emma was great checking in on my cat! He was well-fed, well-loved, and very happy when I came home, and my home was respected and looked just as it did before I left. She also provided many pictures for each drop in which was very appreciated. Emma communicated quickly and efficiently.”
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!
About: I don't have any professional experience, but I've grown up in a family that has housed a lot of dogs and cats since I was born. We've had 4 dogs and 7 cats from my early childhood until today, so while I did obviously have the rest of my family to assist with them, I've still had firsthand experience with a lot of different behaviors and habits of these pets and how certain traits or preferences vary between them. I finished college at UGA recently, so I'm currently at home full-time. Pet care would be pretty easy to fit into my weekly schedule. I always try to make sure I feed my cat her treats once a day around the same time, so consistent feeding and cleaning wouldn't be that much harder with additional pets. I am gone some evenings on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday, but other than that my time is fully open to help your pets stay relaxed, happy, and healthy. My backyard has a fence, but it's currently old and unrepaired, so the gates cannot close properly, so any pets prone to running will be staying inside or on a leash. My house is very small, but my front and backyard are very spacious, ideal for pets that are uncomfortable in small spaces. My cat can be skittish around other animals, so I will need to keep her in a separate space from them, but my family's done that with many of our cats, so it will not be a problem for the client or their pets. My roommate stays inside most of the time, so but he's also very friendly and should not pose any issues for the pets.
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.
About: I have worked at vet clinics and at barns so I have diverse experiences to handle animals. I also have had pets my whole life. I recently moved to athens to start vet school. Since it is the summer I am a free book and have time all day to watch your baby. I have a townhouse with a dog park to take your baby out. I also have a spacious living room where we can play and cuddle. In your home, I will respect your schedule and follow it to a tee.
“Skylar took time out of her day to come over and meet me and my fur babies before I left. This meant a lot to me as I was leaving for a week. I could tell she truly loves animals and did a great job while I was gone. She sent me great pics every visit and I came back to happy cats! Highly recommend her!! 😻”

Whether your pet is high-energy and needs long walks, or a senior looking for a cozy cuddle buddy, I will treat them with the same love and attention I give my own. You can always count on me for prompt communication, daily photo updates, and a safe, reliable environment. I am available for your weekend getaways!! I offer house sitting/walking and feeding for dogs on weekends only. Open availability for weekday and weekend care for cats! I have a very cat friendly home!! I have a separate room for overnight stays for cats!! I am experienced in giving medication ranging from asthma treatments to oral medications!!
“Cannot recommend Morgan highly enough! This was my first time leaving my kitty for an extended period and I was very nervous. Morgan made me feel so comfortable and reassured. Her detailed daily updates and photos were very appreciated. I was able to rest easy knowing my baby was so well taken care of.”
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.
“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!!”
“Catherine was great! Dogs really really liked her and she was great at communicating and sending pictures throughout the weekend. Will definitely hire her again if she is available!!!”
About: All my life I have had a dog; ranging from Jack Russell terriers to Australian shepherds. I have worked on a dog kennel ranch in Southern California for 4 years. I hope to be able to give your dog a home away from home or that much needed break on a long walk.

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.

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.
