“Billie just watched my dog for two days and again I am blown away with her service. She went above and beyond to make sure he was happy active and attended to. Absolutely the best so happy to work with her.”
“Ashley was amazing! She notified us and sent a picture of our pups soon after she arrived. She kept us updated by emails and photos throughout her stay. Because our return was tentative because of driving back from a wedding, she stopped by in the afternoon to let the pups out prior to our return. I highly recommend her and will be using her again!”
About: I have been around cats and dogs all my life. I just love all animals. Dog walking is great for their physical and mental health/improves their joints, and all around good therapy for me and your pet. Play time is also important. I will treat your furry family member with the utmost care & diligence. I am responsible, attentive, & detail oriented and will provide quality services. Currently available during the day. Just about anyday with a little notice. Can set up regular scheduled walk times. Or if you are in a bind, and need, on spur of notice. I am willing to walk from your home, or to a near by park. Giving attention and time. I typically like to know if they have a specific diet, medications, preferences, etc.
“Briana went above & beyond for our 3 dogs during her house sitting stay with them. She communicated clearly & effectively, provided regular updates, & spent lots of time with them while we were away. You can tell that she genuinely cares for them & wants to make them feel comfortable & loved. It meant a lot to us & reassured us while we were away. We would definitely recommend her & use her again! Thank you, Briana :)”
“Ronny is everything one could want in a pet sitter and house sitter! He is professional, courteous, communicative, and most important of all, amazing with pets. I loved my updates and photos while I was away for three weeks, and I could count on him to keep me up to date with what was going on for his safety and my cat’s safety during some heatwaves/storms. I could tell my cat was relaxed and happy with her buddy around. 10/10 would recommend.”

About: From pet-sitting duties and caring for my own animals, I have extensive experience caring for a variety of animals, including feeding, grooming, and providing companionship. I’ve also administered medication to dogs of all ages and sizes, ensuring proper dosage and handling for each. I'm a proud graduate of Bloomsburg University with a bachelor's degree in early childhood education. I also enjoy working part-time in the restaurant industry. My schedule is quite flexible as long as I have some prior notice! I'm happy to work with clients to find times that suit us both well. I'll make sure to follow all of your instructions carefully to keep your little buddy happy! Do you have any specific wishes for them? Just let me know! I welcome them on my bed and couch unless you'd prefer otherwise. I always keep the water bowl full and ensure pets are happy and healthy. If you'd like, I can even give them a bath—just bring their shampoo if they have sensitive skin! If you choose me, I promise to go above and beyond to take great care of your furry friend!
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life from living on a farmette. I also have additional experience working in a Veterinary Office. I have house sat since I was in high school and have loved every bit of it. I have taken care of animals of all ages and species including dogs, cats, birds, geckos, guinea pigs and more. I’m currently in college so am looking to fill up some free time. I love spending my time and days with animals and they act as stress free things for me. I have three cats who roam freely in my home. I have provided them balanced diets as well as administer medications as needed. I clean their liter boxes and pick up after them as needed. Growing up, I took care of many dogs including walking, feeding, enrichments activities, etc.
“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: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs of all kinds and know firsthand the love and attention they need. From my first dog, Francis—a loyal Cocker Spaniel/Beagle mix who was part of the family for 16 years—to Olivia, a playful Boxer mix who brought joy for 9 years, I’ve learned how to care for dogs with different personalities and health needs. Now, I’m lucky to share my life with Lulu, a 3-year-old Staffy and Pitbull mix. I treat every dog with the same love and care I give my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well-loved. Taking care of pets is just part of my everyday life. I make sure there’s time for walks, play, meals, and plenty of love every day. I’m used to paying attention to what each dog needs—whether it’s some extra energy to burn or just some chill cuddle time. Basically, I fit pet care into my routine because I genuinely enjoy hanging out with dogs and making sure they’re happy. I live in a quiet apartment with my dog Lulu, which provides a calm and safe environment for pets. I’m also close to several parks with plenty of space for walks and playtime, so your fur baby will get lots of exercise and fresh air. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or during in-home visits, I always make sure water is available and follow feeding routines tailored to your dog’s needs. I take pride in giving attentive walks, regular potty breaks, and plenty of love to keep your dog happy and comfortable while you’re away.
“Adam was fantastic, I highly recommend him! He is extremely friendly and I can tell how much he cares for animals. He took great care of our pup and house, and definitely eased my anxiety over leaving for a week. He was very communicative and I loved the pics he sent for updates!”
“Jessica had pup-sitted for my very anxious dog and she has done great with him! His anxiety is way down and he’s relaxed enough to even play around! I’m grateful we found her and that my pup loves her.”
“We loved having Sarah care for Clyde. We came home from an extended trip to a happy and well cared for pup! 🐶 💕 We look forward to having her back to help in the future.”
“This was our first experience with Rover and we will definitely be using the service again. Danielle took great care of our two dogs. We would recommend her and plan to use her again if we should need the service in the future.”
“Patience did a remarkable job watching our house, and three fur kids! She went above and beyond by preparing our dogs meals for the day on the morning she left. She sent us photo's throughout her stay with the pups. Patience has great communication skills, and is flexible when plans change during her time at our home. Simply the best experience we have had!”
“Brittany did a fantastic job taking care of our pups! We had to book her last minute for the weekend and she took care of everything like a pro. Both of our babies took right to her right away and spent the day glued to her side. Brittany was everything you want from someone watching your pets- reliable, trustworthy, professional and caring. Would love to have her watch them again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wrightsville
Tricia is, hands down, the best pet sitter we have ever had! From start to finish, she went so far above and beyond her basic duties to make sure our home and our dog were completely cared for. Our boy can be extremely picky and hesitant with new people, but Tricia bonded with him almost instantly. He is also a big boy which can intimidate some people. She knew exactly how to make him feel comfortable, safe, and loved while we were away. She played and brushed him daily and have him lots of cuddles! Her communication was incredible. She updated us multiple times every single day and sent plenty of photos and videos, which gave us total peace of mind the entire time we were gone and allowed us to enjoy our vacation. It was so reassuring to see how happy and relaxed he was with her! On top of being an absolute natural with dogs, Tricia took exceptional care of our house and garden, tackling extra tasks and leaving everything in pristine condition for our return. If you are looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring—especially if you have a selective or picky dog—look no further than Tricia. We will absolutely be booking her again!
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! 👏 👏 👏
Denise did an amazing job watching our pups on short notice. She took great care of them and they were sad to see her leave. She also took great care of our home and left it even better than she found it! We would definitely recommend her and would use her again.
Zoey was great. It was my first time using Rover. She house sat my 3 big dogs and water turtles. She checked in when she got at the house and when she left. She gave updates every night. There is nothing more comforting than knowing your dogs are happy with someone watching them. Will book again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Wrightsville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Wrightsville on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,092 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 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.
