About: I’ve always had dogs my whole life, I currently have a Pitt Bull Mix. The majority of my experience is with medium to large dogs, but I love all of them. I have plenty of experience with dogs! I grew up with dogs and I’ve had plenty in my life. Right now I have a very high energy Pitt Bull mix and she’s very spoiled! But, like my grandpa says, “a spoiled dog is a good dog.” I have a very high energy dog, who would love a playmate! She’s very loving and friendly! She would do well with a friendly and playful dog.
About: I've grown up surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember. My bird, Rocky, is 10 years old. My family has owned dogs such as Shih-Tzus, Old English Sheepdogs, Portuguese Water Dogs, and Shih-Poos. I also have a tuxedo cat, Pearl! They are my pride and joy and I intend to treat every animal with the same compassion and love as I do for my own pets. I understand that every animal has unique routines, needs, and quirks and I aim to meet every pet where they're at. I've been trusted as my neighborhood pet sitter for over 10 years and it is my favorite way to get involved in my community while making furry friends! I'm a college student, so my schedule is very flexible. Specifically, I am very available from Fridays-Mondays. Tuesdays and Thursdays I'm available before 8am and after 1pm. Wednesdays I'm available before 9am and after 1pm. I approach every pet with patience and an open mind. I understand we are both meeting each other for the first time and it takes time to build trust. I care for every pet as if they were my own and strive to be as communicable as possible with their owners.
About: All my life I have grown up with cats and had one pet dog growing up. I have a dog now and 4 cats at home, so I am an animal lover at heart. I absolutely love dogs and kittens. Im a student and work at a retail store in the mornings, so I am available to sit, and walk in the afternoons and evenings. I have a two story house for them to roam, and a front yard to play in. I live in a gated community for us to go on walks.
“She did an excellent job. This was our first time using a service of this nature - so glad it went well. Looking forward to reaching out to Kaitlyn in the future to care for our pets needs. I like that she was close by. And the format via rover - checking and time management- pictures were sent - really nice to get that kind of interaction.”
“Luciana took wonderful care of my senior kitty while I was away for a long weekend, and I’m so grateful! Beyond making sure he had fresh food/ water and a clean litter box, she took genuine care to make sure he felt safe, happy, and loved. Luciana was incredibly kind and patient with my kitty, and it gave me such peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. I highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve helped petsit for my friends before and love taking care of dogs, cats, and even other animals like lizards and gerbils. I have worked for a veterinary clinic and have experiences with small and large dogs and love them all. I am currently a student so I have classes every day but am free after 6PM most days of the week and 12PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I have time between classes to come home and care for animals and can definitely work them into my routine. If a pet is brought into my home, I have a fenced yard and a large space indoors for them to roam around. They have access to my room and the main living space. In your home, I will ensure to take care of your pets how you prefer and to keep myself and them out of rooms they are not allowed in.
About: Hello! My name is Gina and I have years of experience with dog walking, house sitting, and boarding pets. I am very responsible, friendly, and believe open communication is the ticket. I do not smoke, and have a clean record. I work remotely, so my schedule is flexible and I am available to spend more time with your fur babies!
About: My friends and siblings all travel very frequently so I have found myself taking care of their pets for up to 3 weeks at a time and love it! I am a graduate student but my schedule is incredibly flexible. For that reason, I am available for early mornings, evenings and weekends. If needed, I can also be available during the day! I do not have any pets currently living in my home so there is no worry about whether our pets would be friends. Along with caring for animals, I have also been a nanny for about 8 years now so I know how to be respectful of one’s home and their pets!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Winterville is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $25 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 811 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Winterville. 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.
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 .
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.
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 .
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.

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 , 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.
