“Mai and Jonathan are wonderful dog sitters - going above and beyond to care for our two dogs. They took excellent care of our home and communicated with pictures and videos throughout their sit. Since they both work from home, they were with the dogs far more often than other sitters, and we are so appreciative of their kindness and enthusiasm with our babies. Highly recommend!”
“Nora was amazing!! She followed my instructions and I can tell my pup had a great time. She was on time and such a kind person. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Varsha was fantastic and very communicative. She is responsive and took great care of my babies while I was away for the weekend. I would recommend her to anyone and will definitely use her again in the future.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care of our dog and cat received while we were away. Serenidy went above and beyond, showering them with love and attention. Not only did they feel comfortable and loved, but our home was also in great hands!”
“Wonderful and kind. Will certainly work with her again. Thank you so much for your help❤️❤️ it was a big ask but she stayed over night with our pups at our house. I appreciate her diligence and consideration”
“Sarah did a great job taking care of our 2 cats, Great Dane and Sheepadoddle. We received regularly updates and a lot of pictures. From the looks of all the pictures, our Poppy loved kissing her and both dogs loved cuddling with her. She also brought in our mail and packages while we were gone the whole week! We will definitely use her again!”
“Joey did fantastic house sitting with our sweet girl. He was very attentive, always provided updates, and did a great job at just caring for our home as well. Would highly recommend Joey!”
About: I have always loved dogs and I have decided that I want to be around dogs in my free time because it makes me happy! I am a soon to be retired school teacher and want to spend my time now with animals especially dogs! For the next 10 months I will be still working my teacher schedule and would like to get a head start on my next venture. I would be available for dog sitting on weekends and dog walks after 3pm during the work week and anytime over weekends. I have always had a dog growing up and very lovingly cared for my own dogs for the last 31 years. I enjoy being around all dogs. When I retire I would also like to volunteer somewhere for dogs. Again, for the next 10 months, I will still be working my teacher schedule and I will be available during the work week after 3 PM for dog walks or drop ins and during the weekend for overnights. I also would be available for some of my school breaks. I have a fenced in backyard and one dog named Lina. She is medium sized and very friendly with other dogs. I would love to love on your fur baby.
“Mackenzie was great! She was on time, communicated well and was super nice. She took great care of our pup and was respectful of our home. Will definitely book her again next time we need a dog sitter!”
“Tori watched our two dogs while we were away for 10 nights. She sent us many pictures each day. Our oldest dog is on medication and she was able to give him his pills daily. We know she took good care of them while we were gone. Our house was very clean when we returned and would not have known someone was here for the week. We would definitely use Tori again on any trip that we don’t take our dogs.”
About: I have two dogs who currently stay with my mom. I have a german shepherd rottweiler mix named Minnie Mouse (Minnie) who will be 3 in August and a rottweiler named Pooh Bear (Bear) who will be 1 in September. They’re both so sweet and adorable. They’re very gentle, loving, cry babies. I’ve taught Minnie a few tricks like sit, paw, lay down, go to your crate, stay, and to sit before she eats. Bear is in the process of learning, but he gives my mom a hard time and it’s hilarious. I love them both with all of my heart! I’m a full time biology student. I start classes in August so my mornings are open as of right now. I have a part time job during the night, i’m available mornings until I start classes in August. I’d rather care for a pet at the clients home due to my dad being allergic to pet dander, but if I get my own place I’d love to have them over no matter the service!
“Faith was amazing with our golden! She sent regular updates and pictures which we loved. Our puppy can be hyper at times but she was so calm and loving with our boy. Will definitely be calling her again. 11/10 recommend 😊”
About: I love all animals and I've always had pets my whole life. I had my own pet sitting business for several years and specialized in Special Needs animals as I had one myself. I have two small white fluffernutters myself , a Bichon Frisse and a Morkie and a sixteen-year-old cat and they are my heart. Have a large fenced-in yard for for playing and pottying but we go on walks every day so everybody can get some exercise. My animals live to be quite old so I do have some experience with aging pets and special dietary requirements. My neighborhood is in a very safe area with lots of mature trees and grassy areas for playing and walking , plus I have a front porch for gazing at the world in a safe space.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life and I’ve taken care of all of them (I spoiled them way too often). I grew up with a German Shepherd mix, always played with her, even lied on the floor and cuddled with her when she got old. I adopted a cat in 5th grade (she’s turning 10 this year!) and my dad and I call her the queen of the house because of how much we spoil her and how big of a diva she is. My mom adopted a Yorkie and he’s a rascal that I’ve always enjoyed playing with, and feed him this special food my mom buys since he’s 12 now. My mom also adopted a full bred German Shepherd in 2021 and it’s always fun trying to keep up with her when we go outside. I adopted two kittens in 2025 and people say I need to save my money instead of buying them new everything… I won’t stop spoiling my fur babies. My brother also has a Mastiff Pitbull mix who is full of energy and is purely muscle, he’s actually knocked me down a few times when we rough housed (tug-of-war is a game I’ll never win). And a family friend always asks me first to take care of her dogs because she knows I take care of them (she said Stanley, her biggest dog, is obsessed with me because he never leaves my side). School is out, so I’m free all summer and I’ll have plenty of time to spend time and take care of your pets. When I take care of cats I always take care of their litter boxes in the morning after I feed them, and then spend the rest of the day playing with them or snuggling. And dogs, I have a large backyard and a friendly dog that loves to play with other dogs.
About: When I was 10, my family started fostering pregnant dogs and their puppies. From then on, I became a huge pet person! I have been taking care of my own family dogs, cat, and fosters since I was a child. I have 4 years of professional experience pet-sitting and house-sitting for family friends and neighbors. I walk and feed their pets, love spending time with them, and also make sure they get any medication they need. I have experience with elderly pets, puppies, deaf and blind dogs, cats, and dogs of all sizes! I am home for the summer after college, so I am available to your pets 24/7! I am perfect for housesitting and spending tons of time with your fur baby. I have plenty of experience house sitting while pet sitting. I can take care of your home (collect mail, take out trash, keep it tidy) so your pet can stay comfortable in their own environment when you’re gone.
About: I’ve had almost any animal you can think of, trust if anyone should take care of them it should be me! I’ve had big dogs, small dogs, kittens, puppies, bunnies, birds, turtles, hamsters, gerbils, and shoot even ducks. I absolutely love animals and it would be an pleasure for me to help others who need their babies taken care of. I do multiple sides jobs so I’m basically on my own schedule so anytime you need help just ask and I’ll be there in a jiffy! I have a fenced yard and two dogs of my own who are both pretty small (Yorkie and shihpoo). Our stairs are usually too big for them but over their size it’s pretty easy to go up and down. But if need I have a good amount of space to crate any pets needed as well.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Acworth is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Acworth
Madeline was AMAZING! She gave us so much peace of mind as we left for a whole week. She communicated daily and sent photos every afternoon. We had sugar ants and she went to the store to buy a trap for them. She washed the sheets and dishes before we got home. She was 100/10!!! I will definitely be hiring her again in the future!
Kasianay was fantastic! She provided detailed updates and took meticulous care of my fur baby, treating her as though she was her own. I felt very confident that my cat was in excellent hands! She also made sure my place was spic and span before I returned to town. I cannot recommend her highly enough!
Faith is our go-to house sitter when we have a long vacation and want our babies to be well loved and cared for. She sends pics and updates daily, and leaves the house in great shape. She is communicative and personable, and we know our pets are in safe hands with her!
Lo was an absolute lifesaver for us. She stepped in on short notice during a stressful situation and immediately helped bring calm and consistency for our dogs. She was flexible, dependable, and clearly cared about making sure they were comfortable and well looked after. We have a multi-dog household with different personalities and needs, and Lo handled them with patience, confidence, and genuine care. She kept us updated, was communicative, and made sure the dogs were cared for, exercised, and safe while we were away. It gave us real peace of mind knowing someone trustworthy was there with them. We truly appreciated her willingness to help, especially on short notice, and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, kind, and great with animals.

FAQs for House Sitting - Acworth
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Acworth on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,996 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Acworth. 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 Acworth 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 Acworth 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 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!
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Acworth. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
