“Highly recommend Laura H for anyone that needs a caring, attentive, and dependable pet sitter. She provides excellent communication with a lot of pictures, a narrative and helps to keep my sweet 13 year old dog happy. If you have special preferences or needs she has your pet covered. Lots of anxiety leaving my sweet boy for 9 days but they have built a special bond and it was their 2nd adventure together. I returned home to a safe and happy pup. Very thankful we found Laura H!”
“Heather is the best! My pup has the best time and I appreciate the regular updates, photos and videos. Heather has a genuine love for animals and I highly recommend!”
“Clarisa was awesome! She gave us such a good peace of mind with all of her detailed updates and pictures/videos when watching our two cats. I gave her very detailed instructions and she followed them so well! Would 10000% book again!!!”
“I’m extremely pleased with Michelle, She is very diligent and obviously takes her job very seriously. I can go to work knowing she will be there to let my Pearl out for her potty break and playtime. She makes sure I know when she comes and goes along with taking pictures. I don’t know what I would do without her daily visits! Ho”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have always loved helping care for them. From feeding and walking to playtime and giving them attention, caring for animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy. Since COVID, I’ve pet sat for numerous families and currently have a daily schedule walking dogs for multiple households. Last year, I got my first dog in my own home, and she absolutely loves joining me on walks and playing with other animals too! I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable, and I treat every animal like family. I am a teacher so I have summer off! Along with that, once school starts back I am happy to help on the weekends and in the afternoons. I care for pets by keeping their routine consistent and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In my home, I provide a clean, calm environment with regular walks, playtime, fresh water, and close supervision. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully to maintain their pet’s normal routine. I make sure they are fed on time, walked safely, given attention, and kept comfortable, while also respecting the client’s home and providing updates when needed.
“Steve is kind, reliable and is absolutely amazing with our pups. He goes above and beyond and I never have to worry when we have him on the schedule. We have had several dog walkers and he is by far the absolute best.”

We are experienced in giving oral medications and injections. We are always attentive to diet instructions and daily routines. We take the time to notice the small changes in behavior or health. Your pets will be cared for as if they were our own. Pet care is a natural part of our daily lives. With two of us we have twice the love and twice the time to keep an eye on your special babies. We have a spare room that is available for in-home boarding. We also offer overnight stays in your home or drop-in services. We are extremely attentive to detail and always go the extra mile to ensure your pets are well cared for.
“Diamante’ took incredible care of our 9-year-old Labrador Retriever! We hired her for walks 2x a day with feeds plus med administration while we were out of town. She always arrived in a timely manner and spent great time with him. She went the extra mile to send us pictures at every visit, we highly recommend her and will be using her for all future needs!”
“Absolutely love Sabrin! This is my second time booking with her and I will continue to book with her. We weren’t sure how my pets were going to remember her, but I am so glad they did! With all the pictures Sabrin sends me, it looks like my pets truly seem happy. Will definitely be booking her again!”
About: I had dogs of my own for a few years and loved them whole heartedly. I also watched dogs daily in one of my home health cases. I am capable of feeding, playing, walking and taking them outside regularly. If you have pets with special or silly needs, I can absolutely meet those as well! I am a college student. I will have plenty of time to play with and walk your animals in between classes and studying. Some fresh air and animal time will be a nice break for me. In my client's home, I respect any rules that they have with their pet (ie. If they are not allowed on the couch or in certain areas, food restrictions, etc.). I will make sure to be outside with them watching them, just in case. I will follow feeding schedules and make sure they always have water. I will play with them and brush them if needed.
About: I always had dogs growing up and have experience in veterinary medicine. I now work as a Registered Nurse. I am a cat mom to 2 sweet girls and I often pet sit for friends and family. I have experience with cats, dogs, and senior pets. I am comfortable giving all types of medications. I was a dog groomer for about 3 years while I was in nursing school, and groomed my own dogs growing up. My priority is making sure pets feel loved and are entertained while you are away! I work M-F 8-5 with a 1 hour lunch break. I am almost always available on weekends. It is no trouble for me to stop by to care for your pet on my way to and from work, before bedtime, and maybe even my lunch break! I prefer to care for pets in their own home. I find that especially with cats, they are much more comfortable in their home where they feel safe. I prioritize stimulation and comfort so that your baby isn’t bored while you are away! I am familiar with special diets, medication administration, pet grooming, and senior care.
“Katie has taken such good care of my fur baby. I highly recommend. She is professional & spends all the time playing with my boy giving him love and attention. Will continue to book her!”
About: I’ve taken care of pets since the age of 14. I’ve been pet Mom to cats, dogs, fish and hampsters. I’m kind, reliable and trustworthy. I currently work part time so I have the needed time to care for your pets. I am committed to being open and honest. I want all persons and pets to be comfortable. Taking care of your pet is important to you and to me. I’m always willing to learn your pets routines and will always ask questions to ensure your pets needs are met. I value your trust and will do as asked in your home, respecting your privacy and requests.
“Jessica was awesome with our cat Bella during our out of town weekend. Always on time, updating us on everything and taking excellent care of our Bella. I would not hesitate to use for services again and very grateful for her help and care.”

Pet care seamlessly fits into my daily routine, as it has become an integral part of my life. I understand that pets require consistent care, attention, and love, and I prioritize their well-being alongside my own daily activities. From the moment I wake up, I ensure that feeding, exercise, and playtime are seamlessly integrated into my schedule. I work full time with the local Humane Society where taking care of little furry friends has basically become second nature to me, i have on pet of my own and often have fosters in and out of the house that i have developed a routine that allows me to still work full time and make sure they are taken care of! Whether it's a refreshing morning walk, engaging play sessions in the afternoon, or cozy cuddle time in the evening, I make sure to allocate dedicated moments throughout the day to cater to their needs.

From the moment I meet them, I make an effort to establish trust and build a bond. I attentively listen to my clients' instructions regarding their pets' routines, dietary needs, medications, and any specific care instructions. I ensure a safe and secure environment for the pets, giving them ample space to move and explore. Daily exercise is incorporated into their schedule, whether it's energetic walks, engaging playtime, or stimulating mental activities. Feeding schedules are strictly followed, and I monitor their water intake to keep them hydrated. I am observant and attentive to their behavior, swiftly addressing any signs of discomfort or health issues. Most importantly, I offer companionship and affection, providing a sense of familiarity and comfort while their owners are away. Communication with my clients is essential, as I provide regular updates and photos, ensuring they feel connected and reassured about their pets' well-being. Ultimately, I strive to create a seamless, stress-free experience for both the pets and their owners, ensuring that their beloved companions are well-cared for and cherished in my care.
About: I’ve had pets growing up from small (baby frogs, fish) to medium (guinea pigs, hamsters), to big like cats! I love my cat Cleo and have enjoyed pet sitting for friends, neighbors, and family over the years! I always enjoy spending time with them to make them feel more comfortable and loved. I’m currently in search for a long term job and am very flexible. I am available for drop ins from 8am-7pm every day. It would be no problem at all to care for your pet during the day! I treat each pet I take of with love and respect not only for the pet but for the clients home. I want them to not have to worry about a thing while I take care of their pet. I love sending pictures to the client of their pet so they can see they are happy and being loved!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Winterville
Daryana did an amazing job caring for our pup in our home! She was reliable, respectful of our home, and gave our dog so much love and attention while we were away. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our pup was comfortable in his own environment and being cared for by someone so kind and trustworthy. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup and a home that was just as we left it. We highly recommend Daryana to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate in-home pet sitter. Thank you, Daryana.

Did an excellent job looking over my two cats. Left the place very clean. My cats are often a little traumatized after I leave for a while, but with Dima they were completely happy when I got home. I could tell she really cares about cats and gives them lots attention and love.

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.

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.
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 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
