Finding someone to care for our pets and home was genuinely was biggest concern prior to traveling. Gwen was a wonderful sitter and completely took my worries aways. Her attention to detail and flexibility calmed my demanding pets while we were away. I highly recommend Gwen to anyone looking for someone reliable that will ensure your fur babies are cared for, loved and safe. Thank you Gwen!

Ridge was great with communication from the beginning. He took great care of our dog and was very attentive to anything that was needed. I would definitely love to have him stay with our Beau in the future.

Madolyn was a joy to work with from beginning to end. She came to meet our furry family not once but twice to make sure they were comfortable with her. She was quick to respond, easy to talk to and she gave me one less thing to stress out about during the holidays! She left our home just as she found it and our pets were happy and healthy when we arrived home. 10 out of 10!! I will absolutely use her again and recommend her to anyone I meet. Thank you Madolyn for being such an incredible sitter.

Baylee is AMAZING! From start to finish and all the in between's, she is far more than i could have asked for. I have never boarded my babies and thought I'd give this Rover thing a try for in home sitting, so they could be comfortable in their own environment. I was at ease the entire trip away, she kept in contact and even sent us photos and little messages about our babies. I never worried once about having someone I didn't know in my home, that's how comfortable she made me feel and I hope she felt the same. My babies needed to be fed a special diet and meds daily and she was on top of everything. She even took the sheets off the bed, washed them and re-made the bed before leaving! I didn't ask her to do that, but it doesn't surprise me that she did. She has spoiled us, so if ever go anywhere else, there's nobody other than Baylee that I would ever call. BOOK her! You will not be sorry, she is precious! P.S. I think they miss her, because they've been pouting since we returned!

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of “family members” over the years. From young to older, rowdy to anxious, bitty ones to large lap lovers. I’m familiar with administering medications, addressing litter boxes, special eating needs and am well versed in sleeping arrangements. I treat every member with love and care as I would my own. I currently work from home where I am able to travel and be present during the day and evening. I can do walks during my lunch hour to ensure they’re not stuck inside all day or whatever their needs are. Though it is a wfh I have a schedule, but I always make it work for the pets needs. I will do everything necessary to keep the fur babies safe and secure. I’m able to place them in crates or rooms if necessary or continue with crate training or house training if they’re in the middle of learning.

Perla watched our 2 dogs Chase and Luke at our home for 8 days. We had never left our dogs for that long, but I never once worried because she was on top of things. She was great with giving me updates, asking any questions and sending me pictures. My one dog Chase had peed once in the house and she cleaned up as needed. She also took good care of my Chase’s condition. I would highly recommend Perla to anyone!

About: I’m a proud pet owner of cats and dogs alike for over 10 years. I’ve been pet sitting for other people for over 5 years and have cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with company, I’m happy to provide the care they need. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their normal routine, so I’ll follow your instructions carefully and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own and give you peace of mind through dependable, attentive care. I’m a student at Augusta University, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for your pets. I’m in the Augusta area year-round and can often accommodate weekday, weekend, and last-minute bookings. I work hard to be dependable, responsive, and flexible so your pet can stay on their normal routine while you’re away. Whether you need daily visits, overnight care, or weekend pet sitting, I’m committed to providing reliable, loving care and keeping you updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and any special needs your pet may have. I treat every home with respect by keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as you left it.

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember. As a proud dog mom myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, and dogs with different personalities and energy levels. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to help with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of love and attention. I treat every pet like they’re part of my family and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I work a professional full-time schedule during weekdays, but I intentionally structure my time to provide attentive care for pets in my home and during visits. I offer doggy daycare, overnight boarding, drop-in visits, and pet sitting depending on availability. Your pet will receive plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, affection, and supervision throughout their stay. I understand how important routine is, and I do my best to maintain your pet’s normal schedule so they feel comfortable, secure, and right at home. As both a dog and cat owner myself, I know that pets are family. My home is a safe, loving, pet-friendly environment where your furry friend will be treated like one of my own. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routines, preferences, and any special care instructions before their stay. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, naps, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I provide regular photo and video updates, maintain a clean environment, closely monitor behavior and wellbeing, and prioritize safety at all times so you can enjoy complete peace of mind while you’re away.

Devin was an EXCELLENT care giver for our 2 pups. We have a very high maintenance labradoodle and sweet mixed breed that she took perfect care of in our home, while we were gone for 5 days. My mixed breed takes allergy medicine also. Devin made sure they were walked, fed, and happy while we were away. We I’ll absolutely be booking with Devin again. Top Knotch Service!!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Appling

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Appling on Rover is $33.3 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 297 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Appling. 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 Appling 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 Appling 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 Appling 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 Appling. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
