About: I am a teacher on summer break! Neighbors and friends have relied on me to feed, walk, and visit their dogs during the day. Working with children requires some of the same qualities needed to work with animals. I am patient, calm, nurturing, and dependable. I am currently on summer break. I will be available most weekdays and some weekends. I can visit and provide walks during the day. I am available at various times for feeding and playing with your pet. I love to provide a friendly, safe, and fun experience for your pet. I love interacting with pets. I usually go over to feed, give fresh water, and provide bathroom breaks. If there are any specific needs for your pet, I am willing to learn and accommodate those. I enjoy making a connection and building trust with pets. You can depend on me to be on time and communicate effectively, providing you and your pet with the best experience possible.
“Loved getting videos and pics! It lifted my heart knowing that our boys were getting much deserved attention from John. The wagging tails were proof enough that the boys loved seeing John.”
About: Growing up, I had a vizla with high energy and my best memories were taking her on long hikes and playing catch. As I got older, I began to dog sit for a family with a golden retriever, not only taking him for walks but staying with him overnight to make sure he was fed and comfortable while his family was away. I was fortunate enough to be able to adopt a lab mix puppy in 2019 and a hound mix puppy in 2020. I worked very hard with them as puppies with socializing, training, and overall loving them unconditionally. Early on, our lab mix did have some allergies, so I familiar with giving medications whether topical or pills. At this time most of my weekends are free. I am also available to assist with any dog care after 6pm on weekdays. I do work a full time job but I am remote, so if you live close by, I can definitely get in a good walk on my lunch. I am more than willing to do long walks or runs, for I love running, and adventures to parks. I am very responsible and trustworthy and can provide plenty of pictures and videos to provide you comfort that your pup is in good hands. As a dog parent myself, I understand the importance of following any instructions that are given to ensure the happiness and safety of your dog and home.
“Colleen took care of our two pups while we were away overnight. We are experienced Rover users. We have a security system so we know when someone has entered the house. We have had other Rovers who didn't even show for their scheduled visits. Colleen followed our visit requests to a T, sent photos and left a detailed note. We definitely would like to use her again.”

I have had dogs and cats my whole life and I love meeting new ones! 🐶🐱😍 i currently have cats of my own 😻😻 I have pet sat for coworkers in the past and really enjoy it. I can come check in on your pets whether you’re at work or out of town, and I can take your dogs on walks around the neighborhood for exercise and fresh air!

“Kymberlee was absolutely amazing! She was so so nice and listened to everything I had said about my cat. Her positive energy immediately made me feel comfortable and I knew she would be perfect for the job! I will definitely be rebooking her in the future.”
About: I work at a veterinarian hospital see all types of dogs everyday, old and young. I administer food and medicine whether it’s pills or liquid medicine like insulin. I also do grooming things like baths, nails etc. I am currently working part-time. I work during the week and have the weekends off. Even though I work during the week I can take them to work with me and have them interact with other dogs so they get some playtime and make some new friends. I care for them by treating them like their my best friend. They get all the love I can possibly give and treats. Treats are the best way to win a dog over.
About: When it comes to care for your canine family member, I want you to have complete peace of mind as if you were there yourself. I will show up at the time we have arranged. I will let you know I arrived (if you wish). I will send you a photo of your baby (if you like). Solid communication and decades of experience caring for dogs--including difficult dogs--set me apart. I can help house train your puppy. I absolutely love geriatric dogs. Big dogs are great. Loud dogs are fine. Jumpy dogs are A-ok. As a volunteer in dog rescue and a dog foster home, I am accustomed to managing many combinations of dogs and behavior. Only the best care for your baby! I am available for mid-day drop-ins or walks, as well as overnight boarding in your home or mine. I work for myself so I can prioritize great care for your dog! My home is truly set up all around the concept of caring for dogs. With an extra-tall chain link fence with extra support posts, to careful outdoor supervision, to extra tall baby gates in doorways, to all the supplies needed, we are accustomed to dog fostering, petsitting and managing dog care in creative ways. We are experienced dog fosters, used to introducing dogs to one another. We have two household dogs who are accustomed to other dogs coming in and out. In your home, the specifics will depend upon your situation and the details/requests you provide.
“Eleanor was great. Constantly kept me informed and updated on any concerns or issues. Would definitely recommend her services to a friend, and look forward to her services in the future.”
About: I have one year of experience caring for pets, and I absolutely love it! I’ve taken care of dogs, making sure they’re well-fed, walked, and comfortable. I’m reliable and make sure to keep their routines, giving them plenty of attention and love so they feel safe and happy while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I plan my schedule to ensure I have time for feeding, walking, and playing with each pet in my care, whether at my home or a client’s. I make sure to give each pet the attention and care they need, balancing my day around their routines. Staying organized and flexible allows me to keep up with my other commitments while still making pets my top priority. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they have a cozy, safe space to relax and feel at home. I keep a close eye on them, follow their usual feeding and walking schedules, and give them plenty of playtime and affection. I keep any special needs or routines in mind to make their stay comfortable and familiar. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I maintain their regular schedule and routines as much as possible to minimize stress. I make sure their food, water, and walk times are consistent, and I keep the home tidy and secure. I’m also happy to send updates and photos, so my clients feel connected while they’re away!
“I was in a pinch and looking for someone to check on my dog while i was away and decided to stay longer. I didn’t think anyone would be able to help me on such short notice. Not only did Susannah get back to me right away, but she was friendly, enthusiastic and very communicative throughout all of her visits. I truly appreciate finding her on here and would definitely recommend her. Thank you!”
About: I’ve been a dog owner most of my life! Currently, I own two dogs and I treat them like children. I’ve taken care of dogs since the age of 12. My family and friends would ask me to watch, feed, walk and play with their dog when out of town. I work from home so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups. I am available for weekend boarding, drop off anytime. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs that can play with your fur baby. I have a crate for your fur baby if needed.

April, always does an amazing job. This was Allie’s first stay without our loved Kentucky Bear and I was so worried it was going to be hard for all parties involved. To my surprise Allie did great I think it’s because of the special bond her and April have. She may be my antisocial one but April makes her feel so loved and cared for. April even left us a special present with Kentuckys photos in it on our stove which she totally did not need to do at all. Thank you for being the best neighbor/dog sitter around I wouldn’t know what to do without you.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Zebulon stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
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 Zebulon 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 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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.
To find sitters in Zebulon with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
