Very communicative and asked lots of questions to make sure Findlai had everything he needed. Worth her weight in gold.”

“If you’re looking for an amazing pet sitter, look no further. He’s been an absolute lifesaver for me! My two dogs and cat adore him, and it’s clear why. He’s super reliable, always showing up on time, and keeps me in the loop with regular updates. He takes the dogs on multiple walks and runs, and they have lots of play time. I feel totally at ease knowing they’re in such good hands. Highly recommend!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Atlanta
Sam stayed at my home for a week to care for my cat, Simon. They did an absolutely wonderful job! Very communicative with detailed messages and multiple photos and videos each day. Simon is a tough cat to win over (he’s afraid of everything), but within a day and a half Simon found a new best friend in Sam. This was such a huge relief to know he was happy and calm while I was away. Sam has a very chill/calm presence and I will absolutely use their services again!!
Katie was wonderful! She stayed at my home with my two small dogs, one senior and one younger, and took great care of both of them. She was very communicative, sent photos, and kept me updated throughout my trip. She also took great care of my home and left everything spotless. I came home to two happy dogs and a clean house. I would absolutely have Katie stay with them again!
James is the kind of dog sitter you hope you’ll find but rarely do. James was truly exceptional. We booked him months in advance for an out‑of‑the‑country trip, and from the very first moment he met our little beagle, Cody, we knew we made the right choice. Cody is a rescue with trust issues, but he was immediately comfortable with James — something that rarely happens. Right before our trip, Cody injured his back and needed medication every 4–6 hours. We were close to canceling, but James reassured us with a calm, confident “go ahead, I got this.” And he meant it. Being able to travel without worrying about Cody’s safety, comfort, or health was an incredible relief. James is calm, compassionate, and an excellent communicator. He goes the extra mile not just for the pets, but for the humans too. His updates were thoughtful, his care was meticulous, and his kindness was genuine. I highly recommend James to anyone considering him for pet care. He is honest, dependable, and truly an all‑around wonderful person.
Carol was great! We had a power outage at my home and she made sure to take care of my dog and get her to a safe location with AC as well as keep me updated the whole time. She was very communicative and responsive. I’d definitely book again and highly recommend!
Highly recommend Ansley! She is professional, friendly, and communicative. I needed a last minute house sit and she did a great job and I felt really comfortable having her sit for me. She sent updates, kept my puppy happy, and my house was very clean when I got back.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Atlanta on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 4,752 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Atlanta. 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 Atlanta 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 Atlanta 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 Atlanta 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.

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.
