“Suzanne was nothing but spectacular. She was extremely meticulous with our pets and I was very comfortable having her stay in our home. She went above and beyond with things around the house, inside and out. Watered plants, filled feeders, laundry etc. She was always reachable and sent pictures. I am pretty particular with who I choose to watch our pets and Suzanne exceeded my expectations. ❤️ Thank you, Suzanne!!”
“Jordan is an amazing dog sitter, excellent communication, professional and our dogs love her. I was able to fully enjoy being away because she was taking wonderful care of our dogs. Will definitely have her sit again!”
“It was our first time having Karissa watch our girls. She was very attentive to our instructions and responded very quickly to any questions we had. She kept us apprised of how our girls were doing with lots of pictures. The girls seemed very happy and well taken care of. We’ll definitely reach out to Karissa for future dog sitting needs.”
“Patricia has been watching my babies off and on before she joined Rover. now it’s good to have a platform to schedule the times! I must say one of my dogs love her more than me hahaha. She treats them like her own babies! Given I have two large dogs it’s nice she has a huge yard for them To run around in and they feel like she’s their second mom. Could not say enough nice things about her and how happy my dogs are with her. I think they have so much fun they don’t want to come home 😔. 5 stars!”
About: 26 yr Bridgemill Resident: To me our pets are a cherished part our family. I will always love being a dog and cat dad. I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was a young kid. I am a 26 year Bridgemill resident, retired, that has pet sitter for many of my neighbors and friends. We have 2 dogs and 2 cats ourselves now and each has their own personality and needs and wants. You will find I am a very experienced in dog and cat care as well as other types of pets. To help the dog or cat mom, I always take pictures of your furry family member and send them to you while you are away. I can provide references if needed. I am currently retired and stay active with our pets daily with walks, camping trips and, playtime. Our dogs love camping. Miss Kitty and Kai are our cats and they will aways want the same or more time spent with them as with the dogs. The cats make sure we know this. Also still pet sitting for our neighbors and friends. My dogs have a fenced in yard, get their nightly walk to their favorite sniff spots. Our pets all get along and sometimes play with each other. I will always make sure to take multiple pictures of your pets and send them to you to keep up with their unique activities and to help you stay connected with them. I know you miss them as much as they miss you when you are gone, even if its only a trip to the grocery store.
“Brooke is amazing! She is so sweet, and took amazing care of our home and our pets. Our dog, Peaches, adores her and it was obvious that she loved Peaches and spent a great deal of time with her while we were gone. She left the house clean and kept us updated throughout our weekend away. We have a trip planned next year, and we've already asked her to see if her schedule is open to sit for us again. If you're looking for someone to trust to stay with your pets while you're away, Brooke is awesome. I'm grateful to have found her.”
“From the moment I booked Susane on Rover, I hoped to find someone who would care for my beloved Jack as much as I do. Little did I know, I had found someone truly special. Susane took the time to come for a meet-and-greet before her stay, which immediately put my heart at ease. But the moment she greeted Jack with a treat and the warmest smile, I knew—I had made the perfect choice. She didn’t just take care of Jack; she showered him with so much love and attention that I almost felt a little jealous! It was clear that he adored her just as much. Knowing he was in such good hands allowed me to enjoy my time away without a single worry. Beyond her incredible care for Jack, Susane went above and beyond in every possible way. She left my home absolutely spotless and even surprised me with thoughtful cards and gifts on her last day. The kindness and dedication she showed truly touched my heart. Leaving your precious fur baby with someone new can be nerve-wracking, but because of Susane, I will never feel that worry again. Peace of mind is priceless, and that is exactly what she gave me. Susane, from the bottom of our hearts—thank you to the moon and back! Jack and I love you and can’t wait to have you back! With endless gratitude, Jill R”
“Always love using Emily to watch our pup. She is amazing with communication and we can tell she truly loves pet sitting! We have started booking trips around her availability so we can keep getting the best service.”
“Summer is amazing! She took fabulous care of our three dogs (and our house) while we were out of town. She sent tons of pictures and was very communicative, and all of our pets were happy and healthy when we returned. I would highly recommend Summer to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“Bryan took incredible care of my pup when I left for travel for first time in 5 years. I was extremely anxious leaving, yet Bryan was calm, compassionate and extremely fantastic with Francesca, she loves him! I will definitely be scheduling regular walks so that she can enjoy the fun with Bryan again on a regular basis. Thank you Bryan!!!”
“Leah was amazing with my dog/house sitting. She sent me pictures to keep me updated and left me home and my fur baby just as I left them. I’m grateful to have someone to trust my home and pet to while I’m away.”
“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.”
“Chelsea was absolutely amazing! I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch my puppy. I loved how intentional she was with her. She took the time to play with her and give her lots of attention but she also took her to meet and socialize with other dogs which I really appreciated. She kept me updated every day and sent me pictures of how cute and happy my puppy was which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Even when my puppy got a little sick Chelsea was so attentive and made sure she was okay. She kept an eye on her and was there to care for her every step of the way. You can truly tell that Chelsea cares about the animals she watches and treats them like her own. I felt completely comfortable knowing my little one was in her care. I would absolutely have Chelsea watch her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy caring and intentional with their pets!”
“Had a last minute family emergency and Aubrey was willing to step in on short notice. Took good care of my dog and most importantly communicated well in terms of how my dog was doing and in addition when she wanted to take my dog somewhere asked first. I had no issues with that and my dog had a good time but asking first for things like that is important.”
“Demarcio was GREAT!! I was very nervous to leave my pups with someone other than family but Demarcio went above and beyond to send us updates and pictures throughout the day. He was absolutely wonderful! I would 100% rebook with him!”
“Savannah is an absolute gem! She recently took care of our 3 pups and our home while we spent a week at the beach, and she went above and beyond! She made sure we were updated on how the pups were doing and actively looked for ways to help us around our home to make our return so much easier. Our pups were so happy when we came home, we could tell they received so much TLC. Highly recommend!”
“I would highly recommend Rose! She was available for a last minute booking to sit our two dogs and stay at our home. She was quick to respond and communicate throughout the entire process. She came and did a meet and greet beforehand to ensure the dogs were comfortable with her. I have a very large cane Corso and she did great with him! She communicated and provided updates throughout the stay and left our home clean and tidey. I would absolutely recommend Rose and will book her again in the future.”

I don’t even know where to start. Suzanne was amazing! She went way above and beyond. She took the best care of my babies!! They absolutely loved her. Our Mocha has a thyroid issue we just discovered and is now on meds twice a day. She took him on two walks a day and when we returned I cannot begin to explain the difference in his temperament and how calm he is now. She was so sweet and gentle with my two little girls. They loved her. She spent all of her time here with the babies. It is so obvious that she absolutely loves what she does. In addition to caring for my sweet babies, Suzanne also changed my Hummingbird feeders every other day just like I do snd even watered my plants. She was absolutely amazing! I could go on but you get the idea. I will definitely be calling on Suzanne in the future.

The average cost of House Sitting in Ball Ground is $61 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $50 and $74 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Ball Ground 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 Ball Ground 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 Ball Ground 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
