About: I have taken care of animals all my life! I’ve always had some sort of pet growing up. From dogs, lizards, turtles, fish, hamsters & to even guinea pigs. I always have had a passion and love for animals and will do whatever I can to love them and make sure they’re properly cared for. Majority of this July I’m completely free as I’m home for part of the summer from College. I’m very flexible and easy to work with. I won’t be taking care of other people’s pets in my own home, but will be readily available to come see your pet in your home! I’ll follow any rules or tasks that you require of me.

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my lifelong love for animals, my hands-on experience, and my ability to care for pets of all sizes, breeds, personalities, and temperaments! 🐾❤️ I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and have always had a special place in my heart for both cats and dogs. Since I was 14, I’ve gained experience with pet sitting, dog walking, and working at doggy daycare facilities. During my time at doggy daycares, I’ve cared for everything from large Great Danes and energetic Pit Bull mixes to tiny pups with big personalities! These experiences have taught me how to understand different behaviors, recognize body language, and provide safe, attentive care. I’m also very comfortable caring for multiple animals at once! Whether you have several dogs, multiple cats, or a household with both, I’m happy to help. My doggy daycare experience has taught me how to manage different personalities, energy levels, and routines while making sure every animal receives the individual attention, patience, and love they deserve. I also have a special love for cats, especially those who may be shy, fearful, independent, or a little temperamental! Growing up, I’ve helped feral cats gradually become comfortable living indoors as loving house cats. Through those experiences, I’ve learned that earning an animal’s trust takes time, consistency, kindness, and patience. If your kitty is a little feisty, nervous around strangers, or prefers their personal space, that’s perfectly okay! I understand how to recognize signs of stress, respect boundaries, and allow them to become comfortable with me at their own pace. The same goes for dogs who may be anxious, energetic, or need a little extra reassurance. I believe what truly makes me different is that I don’t expect every animal to behave the same way. Every pet has their own personality, comfort level, and needs, and I take the time to understand what makes them feel safe and happy. I’m experienced with feeding, dog walking, playtime, litter box cleaning and maintenance, maintaining routines, and providing companionship. I also offer house-sitting services, so your pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment while I make sure your home is respected, tidy, and well cared for. Above all, I’m reliable, dependable, patient, and genuinely passionate about animals. Whether you have one cuddly kitty, a house full of energetic pups, or a mix of furry personalities, I’ll do my very best to make sure everyone feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Your pets are family, and I promise to treat them with the same kindness, patience, and love that I give my own! 🐶🐱💕 I’m currently attending school online, which gives me flexibility with my schedule and allows me to accommodate different pet care needs! I’m always happy to discuss availability and find a schedule that works best for you and your furry family members! 💖 When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their familiar environment! I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and individual needs, so I always do my best to follow their usual schedule, whether that includes feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, potty breaks, or plenty of cuddles! I’m also very respectful of my clients’ homes and will make sure everything stays clean, tidy, and well cared for while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with both your beloved pets and your home. Communication is extremely important to me! I’ll happily provide regular updates, pictures, and messages throughout my visits so you can see how your furry family members are doing. Whether they’re enjoying a walk, playing with their favorite toys, or relaxing at home, I want you to feel reassured knowing they’re happy and receiving plenty of love and attention. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible, knowing your pets and home are in caring, reliable, and dependable hands! 🐶🐱❤️
About: I have taken care of family pets since I was 10. I had a beagle and jack russell terrier in the past and currently have a german shepard mix. I understand the need for having pet care for traveling arrangements and during working hours (especially the late nights) and the concern with them being with someone that will take care of them. I have trained our pet on many the things he knows. I am happy to accommodate dogs that need senior care and puppies that need potty training. I have plenty of availability for your dog. I am available around the clock for pet care. I am free most days of the week. I will need to be able to leave the house on occasion at regular intervals for errands at times. I have a fenced in yard and one male dog that lives in the home with me. I also have a young child at home and she is great with pets. I would be home most of the day and would be the primary caretaker watching your pet(s) other than personal errands. I can crate your dog during those times if needed. Our dog stays out of his crate unless he wants to go into it on his own. I can have them stay in separate rooms, if needed. If the dog is boarding and staying in our home we recommend that our pet meets the dog outside of our home first.

About: My love for animals started at a very young age. I feel like it all started when I was feeding the stray cats in my hometown. Over the years I have developed my love and knowledge of all animals I can. I volunteer at an animal shelter I can in the north metro ATL area. At these shelters when working with cats my main focus is always on getting them as socialized as possible, but also help with any vet care needs such as giving oral meds or Sub-Q fluids. When working with the dogs I focus on socializing them but also basic obedience training and leash manners. I have 5 dogs, 2 cats and 13 chickens that I have either rescued or had since they were babies. I have a very open schedule. I pet sit as a full time job when I’m not taking care of my mom or my own animals. When in a clients home I always be sure to keep an open line of communication. As well as a detailed log of the day’s activities, if we went on walks, and anything that seems to be note worthy

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was about nine or 10 years old, less in the caregiver since until I was an adult, I now have two dogs and love them dearly. I also enjoy working for Wag!, which I have worked for almost 10 years on and off with a perfect five star rating in many many great reviews. my daily routine includes taking care of a my older dogs, and my cat. I include them in all my plans to make sure they are always taken care of. I always consider them as an extension of the family and their needs are always my priority. I tried to tackle things head on and make sure that their needs are met before my own.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats through the years since I was 3years old. Im gentle and loving and treat all pets like my own making sure they are cared for, loved, and I communicate with pics/ videos of ur pets happy and being cared for when they are anxious without their human. I work 3 days a week in Sugar Hill ga. I’m free on the weekends and off any two days during the weekday. I’m a homebody and a hiker if your dog needs some activity:) if something is damaged or if I notice weird activity with a pet, I will communicate it to the owner. I make sure the house was just as clean as it was left to me. I build trust by showing pictures and videos through out the day. I treat every pet as my baby, even if it’s an old baby lolol
“Terry was fantastic! Followed all our instructions, sent the cutest photos and left the house perfect. It isn't easy to find a good pet sitter but specially not someone good with cats and Terry was GREAT! She will be my go to for my future travel. Thank you for everything Terry!!”

About: What sets me apart is that I truly care about getting to know each pet as an individual. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. every animal has their own personality, routine, and little quirks, and I want them to feel comfortable, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m dependable, attentive, and happy to give your pets the extra attention they deserve. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in visit, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. I also love keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. My goal is simple: for your pets to have a fun, comfortable experience and for you to feel completely confident knowing they’re being cared for. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m dependable, organized, and enjoy making time to give pets the attention and care they need. I’m happy to work walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and cuddles into my schedule while following each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. I plan ahead so I can be consistent and present during each visit, rather than rushing through care. I also make time to send pet parents updates and photos, helping you feel connected and reassured while you’re away. I like to think of pet sitting as stepping into a pet’s world without disrupting it. I pay attention to the small details—their favorite spot to nap, the sound they make when they want attention, the toys they ignore, and the routines that help them feel at ease. My goal is to make your absence feel as uneventful as possible for them. During each visit, I’ll follow your instructions carefully while adding plenty of patience, playtime, affection, walks, meals, fresh water, litter box care, and whatever else your pet needs. I won’t treat the visit like a quick checklist; I’ll take the time to notice how your pet is doing and respond to their personality and mood. I’ll also leave your home even better than I found it and keep you updated with thoughtful messages and photos—not just proof that I stopped by, but little glimpses of how your pet is spending their day.

About: I've been around dogs and cats my whole life and love spending time with both! Currently without a pet in my home so wanting to dedicate this season of life to loving others. I currently have a very flexible schedule as a stay at home mom, and have a few days where I'm completely free! I'm open to walking, playing, and/ or boarding your beloved furry friend! I have a large fenced in yard with no other pets currently. I do have two children under 5 that both adore dogs and cats alike! (I do ask that you choose a different provider if your animal is not used to small children).
About: Lifelong animal lover with 10+ years experience. I bring a calm, patient, and attentive approach to every pet I care for, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. — I provide pet care services including drop-ins, dog walking, and pet sitting visits. I handle feeding and maintaining your pet’s daily routine so they stay comfortable and consistent while you’re away. I also make sure they get plenty of playtime, exercise, and attention based on their personality and energy level. I’m comfortable caring for pets who need a little extra patience, structure, or have special needs or behaviors that require understanding and consistency. As a stay-at-home mom, I am available for pet care on weekends only. My preferred hours are 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM, with occasional flexibility until 9:00 PM depending on the booking. I prioritize safety, trust, and creating a calm environment for every pet in my care. I understand how important it is for animals to feel secure, especially when their owners are away. I pay close attention to each pet’s body language and comfort level, and I always approach them with patience and respect for their boundaries. In a client’s home, I am careful, respectful, and detail-oriented, making sure pets are safe, routines are followed, and the home is left just as it was.
“Javi was such a thoughtful pet sitter. I received a long, well written note every day with photos of my cat. Javi followed all instructions to a T and went beyond expectations in helping keep litters off my floor. Incredible service, so happy I booked Javi.”

“This was my first time using Rover and I could not have fallen in better hands. Sierra is an awesome person to work with. She looked after my dog for a week on short notice. She was always on time, very easy to communicate with, and sent pictures of Jasper daily. I would highly recommend her and hope she is available in the future!”

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give to every pet! I’m patient, dependable, and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule and genuinely love having a furry study buddy, walking companion, or little shadow around. I’m super attentive to each pet’s personality and routine, whether that means lots of playtime for an energetic puppy, reinforcing basic training and good habits, or giving an older pet a slower, extra comfy day. I’m also comfortable following detailed care instructions and keeping owners updated with plenty of photos and checking in if you prefer! My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while giving you peace of mind while you’re away! As a college student, my schedule is pretty flexible, which gives me plenty of time to fit pet care into my day! I’m able to plan my schedule around walks, feeding times, check-ins, playtime, and lots of attention rather than trying to squeeze them in. I also love having a reason to get outside for a walk or having a little furry study buddy keeping me company. I’m happy to work with each pet’s normal routine as much as possible so they can stay comfortable and happy while their owner is away! I provide care exclusively in my clients homes because I love being able to keep pets in the environment where they already feel happiest and most comfortable! I do my best to follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications or special instructions, and of course plenty of love and attention. I’m very respectful of each client’s home and make sure everything is left just as I found it. Whether your pet wants lots of playtime or just a cozy companion to hang out with, I’m happy to make their time away from you feel as normal and stress free as possible!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Acworth
Madeline is phenomenal and I can not recommend her enough! She went above and beyond not only caring for my dogs but also for my home. While in her care, one of my dogs had a horrible upset stomach and she was so kind and caring taking care of everything. She had fantastic communication, keeping me up to date with what was going on. She provided great pictures which allowed for peace of mind. My dogs have never had a sitter before and my oldest dog doesn’t like other people too much. However, he loves Madeline and we do too!

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Acworth is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $28 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 5,968 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Acworth. 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.
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 Acworth 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 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.
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.

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 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.
