“This was our first time using a sitter, and not only was Eva personable, professional and good humored, the dogs seemed truly happy and well cared for and I didn’t feel worried at all during our trip. Great job all around.”
About: I love to being active and outdoors with my animals, every day is an adventure they deserve to enjoy! I have lots of toys and treats available for their needs too! I work in a restaurant working night shifts, so I am available in the mornings and afternoon for walks, check ins, play dates, feedings whatever you need! I love accessing local parks or private nature areas for dog walks away from cars and traffic so they can enjoy nature without the distractions and dangers of busy areas, I can handle any dog with confidence and care, they will always be treated like my own!
“Anna house sitting for my three fur babies, two cats and one very shy and anxious dog. Our dog took right to her. She gave us updates to calm our worries. I would definitely recommend her.”
About: I have always had a passion for animals. I started sitting for furbabes when I was in high school.I am an Army Veteran and work at an urgent care as a Medical Assistant. I have a Great Pyrenees, Whiskey whose is considered special needs and 3 cats Pendleton,Jameson and Moscato who are all full of energy. I typically work 3 days a week and would be happy to travel within the Brunswick/SSI or Jekyll area to care for your fur babes. I try to stay under a 10 mile radius from where I live in historic Brunswick. Please feel free to reach out to me for more detailed scheduling options and pricing for a case by case basis.If you require more than one visit a day, I do charge an extra $5 for the 2nd service. I also like to do a military/first responder/student discount! As for cancellations I do require a 48hour notice for drop in visits but I understand that it’s not always possible. My priority is caring for your furbabes above all. I only ask for a 48hour notice because I often have to turn other clients away when one is already booked. I unfortunately do not offer boarding. I am able to accommodate furbabes with special needs pets as I have a Pyrenees with hip dysplasia. Because of my medical background I am more than comfortable and experienced administering injections. I have a special place in my heart caring for geriatric or injured furbabes- I take extra time with them free of charge. I also am able to help care for small/ large breed pups and cats. I also have experience with livestock and spend extra time with gentle giants such as horses- I grew up in the Midwest and was always helping out on the farm
About: I grew up taking care of dogs and spending time with other animals such as birds, reptiles and rodents. When I was a 10 years old my father and I partnered together to train a service dog for a family friend. I am an expert in animal behavior and training. As I got older I have been a very reliable and trust worthy person my family and friends have depended on for pet care. I can provide affordable, quality pet care for both dogs and cats. I promise my utmost attention and excellent care to each pet I sit. I am working a part time job and actively taking college courses. I am available for house sitting Sat-Tues, however I work Wed-Fri only being available in the evenings for sitting. I understand how important safety is to every pet owner. I do not board pets but I will take every precaution to ensure your home and pet are safe and secure.
“Katia, was wonderful from our first meet and greet meeting. Skylar wagged her tail immediately when Katia entered the court yard. She provided so many pictures and videos of Skylar. We felt at ease with her watching our fur baby. She stayed overnight for 6 nights and everything went very well. We will be using Rover again when Skylar can’t go on the road trip.”
About: I love taking care of pets and connecting with them deeply. Pets give their whole hearts to their humans, and I believe they deserve care and attention that matches that love. I provide thoughtful, attentive care for all pets—big or small, furry or not—because every animal deserves a happy, safe, and loved life. I am a full-time student at Glynn Academy, but I am available to care for pets after 2 PM on weekdays and any time on weekends. I am currently saving up for college since I am a senior in high school. I care for every pet and their every need, whether it be energetic walks, quiet time with cuddles, feeding or potty breaks, or simply companionship. I will pick up after its messes, clean its litter box or its poops, and play with its favorite toys. I will provide the care your pet needs based on its routine and comfort level, while also making sure it feels cared for even when you are away. I prioritize being fluent in dog/cat/bird/fish/etc.

“I interviewed a couple people for drop-in services for my cat, Keesa and decided to book Landry because Keesa didn't hide from her! They were comfortable with each other, and as a cat mom, that's important because it means Keesa wouldn't be stressed. Landry was good with her. She texted me every time she came in and sent pictures. I recommend Landry, and would request again if needed.”
“Chaz is a great sitter and my doberman loves the attention he gets from him. Chaz stayed overnight at my house for several days and left the house clean and i could not tell he was even there after i got home and my dog was happy”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 10 years old and constantly go and watch my sisters dogs once every two months I have a flexible schedule and make pet care a priority. I’m available for drop-in visits, dog walking, and pet sitting throughout the week, including evenings and most weekends. I always make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special needs. I take time to build trust with every pet, provide constant supervision, and maintain a clean, calm environment. Whether caring for your pet in your home or mine, I’ll treat them with the same love, patience, and respect I would give my own.
“Carrie was absolutely amazing with our 15 year old golden retriever, Maya. We appreciated her kindness and communication especially. Looking forward to using Carrie in the future!”
About: (ADDITIONAL DOG RATE IS CHEAPER THAN WHAT IS LISTED) I truly treat every dog like my own, with patience, consistency, and love. I have experience caring for energetic puppies, senior dogs, and even anxious pups who don’t usually warm up to others. I’m calm and confident around dogs that might seem nervous or reactive, and I take the time to earn their trust at their pace. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or quiet company, I make sure every dog feels safe, understood, and cared for while you’re away. I’m a student who takes mostly online classes, which means my schedule is super flexible and I’m home a lot. That gives me plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, and just being present with your pups. I love building a routine that keeps them happy and comfortable. Whether that’s early morning walks, afternoon cuddles, or bedtime check-ins. Your pets will never feel rushed or overlooked! Whether I’m watching your pets in my home or yours, I always keep their comfort and routine a top priority. I live in a one story home with a huge backyard and pool, perfect for exercise, potty breaks, and a little fun between naps! I do prefer staying at your home so your dog is never stressed.
About: I bring 22 years of dedicated dog experience and 3 years of cat care, with a proven history of raising 5 dogs and 3 cats who all lived long, healthy lives. I currently care for 4 dogs and 2 cats, and I previously provided two years of full-time care for my sister’s cat. I’ve successfully trained dogs to sit, roll over, shake, speak, crawl, and follow consistent potty-training routines. I combine experience, reliability, and genuine love with a calm, confident presence that pets respond to instantly. Your fur babies won’t just be safe with me — they’ll thrive. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work a full-time job from 6:00 AM to 2:30 PM, Monday through Friday, which leaves plenty of availability for morning, afternoon, and evening visits. I’m also flexible and can work around those hours as needed. During the day, I’m able to stop by for midday walks or check-ins during my lunch break, typically between 10:00 AM and 12:00 PM. Outside of work, my schedule is fully open for drop-ins, playtime, feeding, and extended care. I make sure every pet gets consistent attention, structure, and affection throughout the day. I would care for pets in a client’s home just like I care for my own, creating a safe, clean, and loving environment. I would follow the owner’s schedule for feeding, potty breaks, walks, and any special instructions. I’d provide plenty of playtime, exercise, and attention while also giving pets calm, quiet time when needed. I would monitor their health, ensure they have fresh water, and give lots of affection so they feel comfortable and secure. My goal would be to make pets feel happy, safe, and loved while their owners are away, treating every fur baby like part of my own family.
“Kariah is the best! She took care of our baby Tug the whole weekend and was so great about sending pictures and updates. We were able to have a relaxing, much needed weekend without any worry knowing Kariah had Tug. She is fantastic, trustworthy, sweet and gentle. Thanks Kariah ❤❤❤”
About: I love dogs. I have been doing drop-ins and dog walking for two years. I got on Rover just recently. The time I spend on a drop-in or walk with your dog is 100% about them. Love is always a two-way street with dogs, and I enjoy bonding with them and caring for them. I work for myself so I have flexibility I just need a day's notice to set up a home visit. I enjoy walking and am walking everyday and would enjoy walking your dog. I currently do visits to the dogs place of residence and I accommodate whatever the particular dog is accustomed to in a loving way. It is very important to me that the dog feels comfortable where they're at as well as with me. This hasn't ever been an issue.
About: What sets me apart is my deep, hands-on experience with pets who need extra care and attention. I cared for my dog Maya, who was blind and diabetic, and I was responsible for administering her insulin and making sure she stayed safe, comfortable, and happy. I also cared for my soul dog Marcello, who developed anxiety in his later years and needed patience, consistency, and a calm environment. Both of my dogs were seniors who lived long, full lives (15 and 17), so I’m very comfortable with senior care, medication routines, and recognizing subtle changes in behavior or health. I’ve also fostered multiple dogs over the years, including a puppy, so I’m familiar with different temperaments, energy levels, and basic training needs. Because I work from home, your pet will get plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day—not just quick check-ins. I’ve had animals my entire life, and while I can’t have one of my own right now, caring for others’ pets truly brings me joy. I treat every animal like family and aim to create a calm, loving, and reliable environment while you’re away. I’m currently working remotely with a great deal of flexibility! I have no set meetings or calls that would conflict with a pet care schedule and can plan accordingly to accomodate your pets needs. I am unable to take your pets to my home due to lease regulations but can come watch your animals in the comfort of your own home. I would defer yo you as the pet owner to guide me on your pets personality, likes and dislikes and get to know them to ensure top notch care!
“Lindsay is amazing with our 2 dogs (Aussie mix and gsd)! Her communication was perfect. I received photos everyday. And she left our house like she wasn't even there lol highly recommend and will use her for dog sitting in the future. Thank you Lindsay for taking care of our babies!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 100 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Atkinson. 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 Atkinson 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 Atkinson 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 Atkinson 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
