“Billie is definitely one of my favorite rover sitters to date! She was highly responsive during the booking/meet and greet process and very communicative throughout the duration of the stay. We received multiple updates a day with multiple photos which definitely put us at ease since one of our dogs can sometimes shut down a little while we are away. Billie did great with both of our dogs and even the one who typically hides while we are gone was a big fan - he was out and social most of the stay. Billie also left our house immaculate. Cannot give her enough praise, will definitely look to book more of our sittings with Billie in the future.”
“Tristan did an awesome job with my girl. She is fearful of new people but she liked Tristan right away. She also has medical issues and needs medication twice per day and Tristan handled it like a pro. I will definitely use him again.”
“Ronny was incredibly attentive to our pets and patient with our dog. We have a dog that is not very trusting of new humans and Ronny took the time to work with him and earn his trust! He was attentive on giving us updates on how our dog was doing and how the rest of the animals were doing. 10/10 will book again 😊”
“Hannah was fantastic! She took very good care of my two fur babies. She was a great communicator as well. There was a little glitch with her ability to get into my house, and Hannah remained calm and figured out the situation before I even had a chance to respond to her text. I highly recommend Hannah!”
About: What sets us apart is our dynamic as a dedicated sitters duo. With two pairs of hands, your pet gets double the attention, playtime, and walks. Because we don't have our own pets yet, your furry family member receives 100% of our focus and undivided love. We treat your home and pets with the ultimate care, ensuring a safe, personalized, and incredibly fun stay every single time. I currently work in a pet friendly office or have the flexibility to work from home if needed. I typically get home from in office work days around 5:30-6pm but that can be flexible if needed. I’m home most weekends and can care for your furry friends throughout the duration of the weekend. I live within a community that is within half a mile of a very large park! I also can travel to your home and have a ton of flexibility with whatever care your pet(s) need!

WISHING A SAFE AND PLEASANT DAY TO ALL! THANK YOU.** Hi all! I am glad you have landed here. I have provided pet services (day stays, outings and overnights) for family, friends and colleagues since 2014. I have primarily cared for canines as well as a very small sprinkle of cats. On a personal note, I have independently raised a rescue pittie from puppyhood through 14 years (as shown in profile image). I find great pleasure and purpose in animal care/welfare work. I have engaged with dogs of various demographics, sensibilities and physical needs. Outside of my full-time career, I participate as a volunteer with a local shelter. This encompasses dog walking, dog handling, day trips and overnight care with ongoing training opportunities. I look forward to prospectively partnering together to fulfill the care requirements of your beloved animal companions. Thank you for considering. My schedule varies and can be flexible. Please contact me to discuss how I may support the care needs of your household pets. I look forward to connecting! All services are performed at the client’s residence to reinforce daily routines and comfortability of your animal companion(s). An initial meet and greet is required. I maintain pet sitter insurance via Pet Sitters Associates. Proof of insurance is available upon request. * Please be advised that a trip fee will be added for services outside of my service region and/or for multiple same day trips to/from the client’s residence. * Additional rates apply for more than one pet.
“Absolutely amazing, such a sweetheart and very communicative, took amazing care of my baby boys and did it last minute for me which I appreciate so much. She is so amazing and genuinely cares for the pups. House was clean, pups were happy, and they were fed 🤍🤍”
About: As a lifelong dog lover and owner of a friendly mini golden doodle, I specialize in dog walking, pet sitting, feeding, and care. With experience caring for dogs of all sizes, I provide a safe and welcoming environment for your furry friend. Pet-friendly and full of love, I'll give your dog the attention and care they deserve! I'm currently working full time but Monday-Friday I'm available after 5. Depending on how early, I can do the morning on weekdays too. I’m available all day and night on weekends. When I am with your pet, it will be loved all the way until you return. There are already dogs that live with me, and they will learn to love your dogs. There isn't a fenced in area, but I always have the dogs on a leash and watch them carefully.
“We had a great first experience with Zach! He stayed at our home with our two older, somewhat needy girls, and they were immediately comfortable and at ease with him. It’s obvious he’s very experienced and comfortable with dogs. He was timely, did a meet and greet beforehand, and sent us plenty of photos, videos, and updates throughout our time away, which we really appreciated. He was also very respectful of our home and left everything exactly as we had left it. Most importantly, the girls were happy and well cared for when we got home. Zach is genuinely nice, reliable, and someone we felt comfortable trusting with both our dogs and our home. We’ll absolutely use him again!”
“KIAH. Was awesome. She was so great with our pup. She sent me period pictures of what they were doing. It was great. I will definitely use her in the future. Totally recommend this girl!!!!”
“Omg! I cannot ask for a better pet sitter. Maria is a sweetheart and made us feel very secure watching Lucy while we were away. She is very communicative! We really loved that she kept updating us with pictures. I highly recommend booking her and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”
“Kelly was great with taking care of our dog while we were out of state. Senior dogs have so many issues and Kelly made sure that he got the love and attention he needed throughout the day and night❣️”
“Phillip took great care of our 2 big dogs for a long weekend and was very respectful of our home. He is very communicative and diligent about making sure he is following your instructions and the different needs of each dog. Would highly recommend!”
“Susan & Corey were absolutely wonderful with my anxious & sweet Chihuahua. They stayed at our home and were extremely kind and wonderful with my dog! They gave him so much attention, belly rubs, and snuggles. Susan was also very kind at arriving very early on the first day so we could set out for our trip on time. The communication was also great with Susan and she made us feel very comfortable by sending pictures of my dog eating, snuggling with them on the sofa, and being happy. Susan also took great care of our home, brought in our mail and packages for us, and left our home nice & clean. She also left us a report card on their stay which we thought was a nice touch. Would highly recommend Susan!!! She is kind, professional, and clearly has been working with animals for a long time.”
“Aubreigh was so great with our dog! She was communicative and kind! Last minute we had a schedule change and she was very flexible. She administered meds for us and left the house just as we did! We will definitely have her back 😊”

“Our furry Boys seem to have enjoyed Ryan's company. Ryan took care of them and our home, kept in touch with me, he was flexible and concerned about making sure he was meeting our needs. The Boys were relaxed when we got home which tells me they were well tended to. We will definitely book Ryan again.”
“Tabby was an exceptional house/dog sitter who accepted a last minute request for Thanksgiving week. I was thankful the previous dog sitter cancelled b/c I am so fortunate to find her. She would send daily updates, ask thoughtful questions and so many other little things that really added up (collecting mail, keeping up with my Xmas countdown, making the bed to it looked like a hotel bed, leaving the house looking as if no one was there at all). See? She was all around the perfect dog sitter. On top of all of that I felt so comfortable with her. She has a way of making you feel like you’ve known her a lot longer than you have. It was refreshing to know that our dogs were in good hands while we were away for Thanksgiving. I can’t say enough good things about her! 10/10 recommend and will absolutely book with her again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wrightsville
Caris was fantastic! She arrived on time and cared for our two large breed dogs very well. One of our dogs is a senior and needs extra assistance getting around/ up & down the steps and she went above & beyond to make sure he was comfortable. She communicated very clearly & regularly with messages & photos. She left our home very clean and followed all instructions that she was given. I would highly recommend her! 👏 👏 👏

FAQs for House Sitting - Wrightsville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,075 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wrightsville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Wrightsville walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Wrightsville maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Wrightsville 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 .
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.
