“Booked last minute but Savanah came over right away to go over everything before our trip. Loved receiving her notes and photos while we were gone so we knew what was happening. Was great to have peace of mind knowing our kitties were well taken care of while away.”
“She is very communicative and prompt, consistent and thorough. I have cameras so I got to see how much my dogs loved her. So reliable and I’m grateful she could keep my dogs safe and happy!”
“Tobias was very attentive and made sure my dog had all of his needs taken care of during his drop in visits over the weekend. He was also very informative during his visits. My dog is 14 years old and he also did a great job administering all of his meds. I definitely recommend Tobias!”
“Natalia was amazing! Fenrir was so comfortable with her! Our pup was alittle bit of a special case because he had surgery the week before, she was super helpful with keeping me posted and sending pictures. He also had a couple accidents in his kennel which she didn’t mind helping out with at all. Thank you so much Natalia ❤️”
“Our kitty was in great hands with Sara while we were out of town. She is friendly and communicative — we really appreciated her prompt, daily updates and photos when she stopped by for check-ins. We will absolutely have Sara back to care for our kitty the next time we are out of town!”
“I adopted my dog fairly recently so I was nervous about leaving her with someone else for the weekend, but Megan was extremely attentive and made me feel comfortable on day 1! She was wonderful about providing updates and asking about details I hadn't even considered. I have a cat as well and I could tell they were both very fond of her by the end of the weekend. I would definitely recommend Megan to anybody looking for a petsitter.”
About: Because I’m a very caring person and very gentle with animals and anything living including plants. I’m a very positive human being. Thank you very much I’m available every day and most times. I can spend the night if needed. I’m good with all breeds and sizes and ages. Thank u I spend lots of time with the animals I pet sit for and I give them lots of love and attention and things they need
“Jeanene was absolutely fantastic! I feel like I hit the jackpot cuz she was able to accommodate my cat on such short notice. She was super responsive and a great communicator. It was a huge relief knowing Puff was well cared for while I was away. The peace of mind Jeanene provided was worth it and more. Thank you!!”
“I will absolutely book with Alice again. She showed up when she said she would and, most importantly, communicated perfectly. I feel much more at ease going on vacation now knowing that Alice will be taking care of my pup!”
About: I am a lifelong animal lover who will care about and adore your pets as if they are my own. I have lived with dogs and cats, plus the occasional fish, bird, or Guinea pig, since I was born, so I’ve been taking care of them since I was a small child. Family, friends, and neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets and keep them safe, as well as to provide oral medications and keep skittish, anxious, or previously traumatized pets calm during storms, fireworks, or separation anxiety. My other job is massage therapy, so there are times when I am not home or not available. I work 5-hour afternoon shifts Fri-Mon. On other days I may have shorter time blocks when I am away due to in-home appointments. I have a great deal of experience house-sitting and caring for the pets of the house while doing so. Other than needing to keep the space fragrance-free, I will be happy to take care of your home and pets as close to exactly how you would as I can. I have a small SUV, so I can take dogs to parks if desired, but even if it’s not, I will be delighted to walk them around your neighborhood or play with them in your yard.
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for all kinds of dogs and cats, from energetic puppies to senior pets who need extra patience and gentle care. I’m comfortable with large breeds, shy or anxious dogs, and managing multiple pets at once. I’ve also worked on basic puppy training like leash walking and simple commands, so I can reinforce good habits during walks or visits. I’m calm, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals, which helps pets feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own, paying close attention to their individual needs, routines, and personalities. I work early mornings at a bakery, so I’m available most afternoons and evenings throughout the week. My schedule can vary slightly, but I’m flexible, easy to reach, and can usually confirm timing at least a day in advance! While doing dog walks and drop-ins, I make sure your pets are safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for, and that all of their needs are met while you’re away. I treat every pet with patience, love, and attention, and I also make sure your home is respected and taken care of during visits. I’m always open to communication, so you can easily get in touch with me while I’m with your pet, and I’m happy to send pictures and updates so you feel reassured and connected the whole time.
“Sadie has been amazing! She's super personable and easy to connect with on a human level, but she's also incredible with my animals. I have her take my dog out midday while I'm working, and she's gentle and patient with him since he's very old and unsteady. She's lovely with the cats too, and makes sure that they don't run out the door. I was anxious about leaving my pets in someone else's care as I have very high standards regarding how to take care of them. Working with Sadie has calmed my nerves and reassured me they're in good hands. I can't recommend her enough!”
“Ingrid and Ty are awesome! They were able to accommodate our last minute needs with ease and grace. On top of that, we have 4 needy dogs that require extra behavioral attention. Our babies took to them very easily and we felt so computable knowing our babies were getting extra special care when we work long shifts. We will definitely be booking with Ty and Ingrid again and I look forward to more of the super cute pictures they’re able to get! Thank you both so soo so much!!!!”
“After lots of Rover experience we can easily say Oxana is the best. We always trust her with our kitties and know she will send us lots of photos. She is always communicative, timely and respectful of our home. And our kitties love her. Highly recommend!”
“Alex was such a gem! He sent very thorough notes and took lots of pics of our cats when he dropped in:) He did exactly what we instructed him to and we felt very safe having him take care of our babies. Would definitely recommend Alex and will book with him again in the future. He really went above and beyond!”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a child. I have a deep love for all animals and do my best to give them all the care and attention they deserve. My schedule is flexible, so I available any day od the week. I work full time, but I am able to still meet the needs of most pets pretty well! I make sure to provide my animals with ample playtime and stimulation. I always clean up after them properly and keep anything that may be a threat to their health out of sight and out of mind!
About: I’ve had dogs and cats in my life since I was a toddler. I’ve always been a big pet lover and currently have two dogs and three cats of my own. I understand every pet is unique and has their own personalities and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I have pet sat for neighbors and friends since I was a teenager! I am easy to work with and very responsible, I’m here for whatever you need! I currently work part time, so I have plenty of extra time on my hands! My schedule is very flexible so I can adjust to your needs! I can watch your pet in their own familiar environment to hopefully keep them from having the fear and anxiety of being in a new home, I’ll try to keep your usual routine! I will show them lots of love while engaging them in whatever playful activities they prefer!

Kimberly has always put my mind at ease when we have to go away. This most recent time was the first time we had gone away since one of our dog's had passed, and I was very nervous about leaving our other dog. Kimberly communicated with me frequently and Ophelia loves hanging out with her. Thank you!!!
Jane was amazing with our cats! She was so communicative and went above and beyond to make sure they stayed warm during the below freezing temps while we were out of town. She was very sweet with the cats and made sure to give each of them attention. We will absolutely be using her again!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Candler is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $33 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,040 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Candler. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.

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.
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.
