“Bayleigh was absolutely wonderful! As a matter of fact, my cats seemed disappointed when I walked through the door instead of her! She was prompt, detailed, and extraordinarily loving to our two cats. I recommend her without hesitation and will absolutely be using her again.”
“Ciara was wonderful watching our cat. She sent daily picture updates of both our cat and food/water bowl status. We really appreciate the level of care she gave to our pet while we were away. We would definitely use her again!”
“Jessica is an animal lover to her core and you can tell as soon as you meet her. She is so patient with our two rescue dogs and did everything she could to make sure they were comfortable and well cared for. Highly highly recommend!”
“Akira came by for a meet-and-greet with our high-energy high-maintenance dog. Akira did great with mitigating our pup's energy and stayed calm and learned how to make our dog do some tricks! Can't wait to meet Akira again for walks and dog sitting!”

About: I am certified in Pet CPR and First Aid through the American Health Training Association. Personalized Care, Special Needs Pet Care, and Experienced & Trustworthy I am retired and currently an Interfaith/Interspiritual Minister which provides me with a flexible schedule. I am available weekdays, most weekends and holidays for you. My services at this time will take place in your home. I will require an initial greeting to make sure your animal is comfortable and has a chance to get to know me in their own environment. I have worked with animals that have had anxiety and was able to work with them to gain their trust.
“Kelly is very reliable and our dogs absolutely love her, she communicates well and is always prompt. I would recommend her to anyone. Our dogs have fallen in love with her❤️❤️”
About: I sometimes feel like a dog/cat whisper. I have a very calm nature and I think dogs/cats can really pick up on this. I have had animals of my own but could no longer afford the monetary funds it takes to care for dogs and cats. I am a retired active senior citizen and I have a lot of spare time I would love to devote to dog/cat boarding or walking. When I do care for dogs/cats in my home, I try to make sure they feel I care for them and snuggle and hold them, if I am allowed by the animal. I always wait to see if they have sniffed me and that lets me know they are or are not accepting of me.
About: My mom calls me Snow White, because animals come to me and I'm always rescuing something. I get it rightfully. My grandfather kept dogs, goats, pigs, and at one point a monkey. The monkey was before my time, but the soft spot for animals got passed down. I've had dogs of my own for 20 years, and there have only been about six months of my life entire without one. Today I share my home with three dogs, a cat, and a bunny, and I've cared for chinchillas and hedgehogs too. Along with dogs, I'm happy to visit cats, rabbits, chinchillas, and hedgehogs. Have a different kind of pet? Message me and we'll see if it's a good fit. I'm comfortable giving oral medications. Seniors, puppies, and shy pets are all welcome. As a real estate agent, I set my own schedule, so I can plan visits around your pet's routine. [I'm available mornings, midday, and evenings, including weekends and holidays.] My own day already starts and ends with feeding, walks, and cleanup for three dogs, a cat, and a bunny, so your pet's visit fits into a routine I already keep. Once I confirm a visit, it goes on my calendar like a closing. I've been a licensed real estate agent since 2010, so being trusted with other people's keys and homes is what I do for a living. I'll treat yours the same way: locked up behind me and left just as I found it. On a drop-in visit, I follow your pet's routine: meals, potty breaks, playtime, or just company for the ones who'd rather sit next to someone. I'm comfortable with dogs of every size, from toy breeds to the big ones, and all energy levels. After every visit, I'll send photos and a quick note on how it went.
About: I bring 12 years of cat experience to the table, which means I understand everything from litter box politics to the fine art of being ignored. I’m comfortable caring for cats of all personalities, shy, spicy, clingy, or aloof, and I know how to keep their routine calm and predictable. I also have 5 years of experience helping with dogs, including walks, feeding, playtime, and basic care. Cats may be my specialty, but I’m happy to care for dogs and make sure they’re safe, exercised, and well looked after. What sets me apart from other sitters is my patience and attention to detail. I respect boundaries, follow instructions closely, and focus on making pets feel secure in their own space. I take pet care seriously, while still enjoying every minute of it. During weekdays, I’m available from 3:30 PM to 3:30 AM, allowing for evening and overnight care. On weekends and holidays, I’m available all day, offering flexible and reliable pet care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow care instructions closely, maintain a calm environment, respect routines, and provide attentive, reliable care in your home or mine.
“Iyana watched my two cats while I was away and she went above and beyond! Iyana was kind enough to send videos and pics and you could tell how much my cats loved her. She took a lot of time to play with them and she was thorough and very communicative. I cannot wait to rebook Iyana again and I highly recommend her!”
“Charity was absolutely amazing! She is very responsive and helped us last minute in a pinch. The dogs loved her from her meet and greet. She was understanding of our concerns as protective pet parents and was very reassuring that the dogs would be very well cared for, and they were! We received videos and pictures every visit and by the time we came home from work, the dogs were wiped out from all the running and fetch. Seeing how happy they were in the videos made me so comfortable having Charity care for them. She even made sure to give our cat some attention! We will definitely be trusting Charity again when we need more care for our pets.”
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.

You can depend on me to be on time and communicate effectively, providing you and your pet with the best experience possible.
“Ashley was amazing! She watched our dogs while we were out of the country and was very communicative. She was consistent with visit times and sent pictures each time. We felt super comfortable and were able to relax on vacation knowing our dogs were taken care of! Highly recommend!”
“Morgan has been a blessing! We are new to the Raleigh area and initially didn’t feel too confident after hearing about previous Rover experiences. Morgan has been extremely dependable, caring, and very sweet with our little guy Nathan! We had used her multiple times and have nothing but good things to say about her.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Zebulon is $23 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $32 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 4,179 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Zebulon. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Zebulon. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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.
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.
