About: Since I was a baby, we have always had animals around. Throughout my childhood, we owned different animals such as: dogs, cats, birds, fishes, turtles, and rabbits! I currently own 2 cats and they are what I consider my babies. Owning an animals is an every day commitment. They keep me going and my favorite part of the day is putting together their "fancy" dishes! I understand the importance of having someone reliable to watch your pet! I have 2 cats who are extremely friendly and welcoming. We have many toys, trees, and perches! I respect any boundaries and rules a client has for their specific baby!
About: Hi there! My name is Jenna I am a fur mama & a mama to my daugther. I am a Special Education Early Interventionist within the North GA area, with a flexible schedule allowing me to help & love on your fur babies :) I have taken care of animals since I was very young. In addition, we are an animal loving family- Birdie (our 4 years old Plott hound), River (our golden retriever 1 year old), two cats, (Molly & Kitty), and Teddy (our sweet little hamster)! I firmly believe pets are truly family! I love to ensure that clients can feel comfortable leaving their pets in my care and enjoy their trip away from home knowing their pets are in great care. I would be more than happy to help you and your fur baby- whether it is needing an extra set of hands throughout the work week, such as drop in visits or a fun walk, to extended help when you may be away. My jobs offers a lot of flexibility within my schedule, therefore I have plenty of time to love on your pets and ensure that they get some fresh air & exercise daily. I can easily crate or provide a safe space for your fur baby, as requested.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 15 years and caring for animals has always been a core part of my life. Alongside long-term sitting experience, I have a strong background in both the veterinary and farm industries, giving me hands-on knowledge of animal behavior, health, and safety across a wide range of species and temperaments. I’m comfortable caring for pets with medical needs, administering medications, and keeping a calm, attentive eye on subtle changes in behavior. From energetic puppies and senior pets to anxious animals who need a little extra patience, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique needs. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my goal is always the same: to make your animals feel safe, relaxed, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine and something I prioritize, not squeeze in. I structure my days around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and check-ins, making sure each pet gets consistent attention and care. Because I have long-term experience in both veterinary and farm settings, I’m used to managing multiple animals and maintaining reliable routines. On a weekly basis, I plan ahead for any special needs like medications, training reinforcement, enrichment activities, or extra exercise. I’m organized, dependable, and flexible, so pet care fits seamlessly into my lifestyle rather than feeling rushed or transactional. I care for pets the same way I’d want my own animals cared for: with consistency, patience, and close attention to their individual needs. In both my home and a client’s home, I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible—including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions—so they feel comfortable and secure.
“D'Ashia was excellent with our Harley, she went above and beyond house/ pet sitting while we were out of town. She definitely put our minds at ease especially since this was the first time us leaving her.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,022 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Afton. 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 Afton 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 Afton 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 Afton 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 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.
