“Kristopher was great! He came over a few days early to meet our dogs Chase and Charlie. Both dogs warmed up to him immediately. Kristopher was great with communication and I loved the daily photos. I would recommend Kristopher to anyone needing a dog sitter.”
“Sami was great with our girls. She communicated regularly and even stayed a bit longer when I was slower to respond. Very attentive and observant about change in behavior. Thank you for taking great care of our girls!”
“Nicole has been great and took pictures to send to me while I was out of town. Ad anxious as I was, it was a relief to see that my cat was well taken care of. Would definitely recommend using her services in the future!”
About: I have had dogs my whole life ranging from 175 to 50 pounds. My family also breeds dogs so I’m comfortable with all ages. I have dog sat for numerous family and friends and love all animals so your pet will get treated as if they were my own. I’ve also took care of dogs that take medication, are on special diets. I have a full time job but I make my own schedule so I will base that off of my schedule with rover. Pets will be well taken care of and took on walks. If your pet is more laid back and likes to lay around all day then we will do that. If your pet has a lot of energy and like to run the we can do that as well. I have plenty of yard for your pet/pets to play. I currently don’t have any other animals in the house and am waiting for my puppy to be born! Your pet will be allowed on furniture unless that is a rule you have then I will not go against it. I have plenty of toys, dog beds, and crates if needed.
“Kristen took care of our babies while we were out of the country, she communicated very well throughout and was punctual. Everything I asked of her she did perfectly! She kept our cats fed and happy while we were gone, will definitely book her again!”
About: Please read my full profile! Hi I am Jordyn and I am 40 years old. I am a native of Washington State but have lived in Zebulon for 3 years. I have had animals my entire life and I am a better person for it. I have such a deep love for animals, dogs especially but all animals. I take caring for them very seriously and would love to watch all your fur babies! My husband and I have 2 dogs of our own, Blackie, Luna and Saven. Look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! Most people may not be aware of this, but Rover takes 20 percent from its sitters. Tips are very appreciated to offset this. For housesitting, I am not comfortable with indoor cameras. I understand how popular they are these days, and the desire to protect your babies and home while you’re gone. But it feels intrusive when I am staying overnight. Please keep this in mind when sending me hosuesitting requests. Thank you. I am also an Airbnb host, so I work from home. I am very flexible in my availability to care for dogs and cats at your house. I make sure to be on time and while I may need to leave to let out our own dogs if my husband is working, I will be at your place with your babies most of the time.
About: I am a work from home mom who loves pet sitting. I started this journey a few years ago, and has had the privilege of hosting several dogs of all ages, personalities and sizes. My children absolutely love animals, especially dogs, so there will be lots of cuddles and love from us. I take dog sitting very seriously, so I am very careful, and I always aim to please my pet parents, so I am always sending pictures, videos, and making sure your baby is happy and well taken care of. I am big on staying fit and healthy, so I take daily walks to get my steps in. I am very accommodating, so nothing is ever too much for me. I’ve had pet parents ask me to scramble eggs for their fur babies and put it on top of their dog food, and I’ve also had pet parents tell me to only feed their fur baby with a spoon, so please don’t hesitate to ask for any special request, because I aim to please! I work from home during the week and I have lots of down-time allowing me to interact and play with your fur baby . I am off during weekends and holidays I have a big house with an unfenced yard, and a loving family that will play and love on your fur baby. We will take daily walks, play outdoors, and have lots of play time and cuddles.
About: Have had pets since I was a child. Always dogs, sometimes cats, reptiles, rodents, or fish... often combinations of more than one of the above I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to give your pets as much attention as they want. Can also take entire days of from work to focus on pets as needed. Our yard in a quiet neighborhood is not fenced, but we can & will take as many leashed walks as needed. In the house, we have a laid-back pug and an aloof cat who likes to hide in the bedroom (she has a lock that lets her in while keeping dogs out) when strangers are about.
About: I’ve owned family dogs since I can remember we’ve always had a pet. I’ve cat sit for my sister and her friends on multiple occasions, dog sit for my aunt, watch family friends dogs, and have walked anything from a terrier to a Great Pyrenees. I’m currently a student at Wake Tech and work two part time jobs. The jobs don’t take up much of my time during the week and I utilize time management well, so school isn’t usually too busy unless it’s around tests or exams. I can get up whenever I need to and get sleep whenever I find the time I’m flexible in where I can be and for how long. My homes isn’t good for pet care as I still live with my parents and have a dog of my own living here, but I can assure you in your home I will care for your pet like it’s my own and treat them and your home with the utmost respect. I can do whatever is necessary to take care of my clients pet’s whether that’s just being around them because they like company, taking them for walks, feeding them, and ensuring their safety above all else.
About: I’ve grown up around animals and had several throughout the last 33 years. I really only have experience with dogs and cats, I currently have 5 cats and 2 dog. As a pet caretaker with a flexible schedule, I can easily adapt my day around each pet’s needs. I’m able to plan feeding times, walks, play sessions, and check-ins at times that work best for both the pet and their owner. My flexibility allows me to provide consistent, reliable care—even if the owner’s routine changes—while making sure the pet maintains a comfortable, steady daily rhythm. This approach helps me give attentive, personalized care throughout the day. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly two year old female German Shepherd loves to play. And also a male rat terrier mix. I can also crate if needed. Also lots of treats and toys!
About: I’ve been around dogs since I was 7 years old, growing up with both small and large breeds, so I understand how different their needs can be. I keep an active lifestyle with plenty of walks and playtime, but I’m also mindful of dogs who don’t do well in the heat, offering enrichment activities to keep them mentally stimulated and cool. My home is clean and completely smoke-free, so your pup will have a healthy, comfortable place to relax. Whether your dog needs an adventure buddy or a calm place to rest, I’ll tailor my care to fit them I work from home, so I’m available throughout the day to give your dog attention and care, not just quick check-ins. I can take dogs on multiple walks a day, keep them company, administer any medication on schedule, and adjust to whatever routine your pup is used to. Since I’m around all day, your dog won’t be left alone for long stretches, and I can respond right away if they need anything In my own home, I have one dog, so your pet will get personal attention rather than being lost in a crowd. I keep counters, floors, and bathroom trash clear of anything edible, and my home is kept incredibly clean to make sure it’s a safe, healthy environment. It’s also a calm, non-smoking household, so your dog can relax without excess noise or stress. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I treat their safety and comfort as a top priority

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Wood is $33 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $33 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 November 2026, there are 391 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Wood. 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.
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.

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.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
