“Serenity took wonderful care of our animals just as requested. She came a day before to meet them, was on time, and our dog took to her immediately. Would definitely rebook with her in the future is needed!”
“Jamie was the best! She even went as far as to buy our dogs collars when they needed to be walked on a leash due to landscaping! She is very responsive and keeps you super updated on your pets!! We greatly appreciate her and will definitely use her again!”
“Wonderful and kind. Will certainly work with her again. Thank you so much for your help❤️❤️ it was a big ask but she stayed over night with our pups at our house. I appreciate her diligence and consideration”
“Nora is just the best. She sent us so many photos and gave us updates. She left our house cleaner than we left it. She also was super communicative of when our dogs were left alone which was minimal.”
“Rachel was amazing! She’s super sweet and took such great care of our dogs and our home. My dogs felt extremely comfortable with her, which means a lot to us. She went above and beyond, she even cleaned up the room she stayed in, washed the sheets, and made the bed before leaving, which she definitely didn’t have to do. That really shows how much she cares and goes the extra mile to do things right. We absolutely love her and will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Liz was absolutely wonderful with our newly adopted dog. She was so patient, kind, and clearly experienced in working with dogs who are still adjusting to a new home. She took him on long walks, gave him lots of attention, and treated him like her own. We’re so grateful to have found Liz and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!”
“We re-booked Jenna for a 12-day vacation to care for our elderly two dogs with multiple medical needs. We trust her to care for them, administer their medications, and keep us informed. She sent pictures all along. The dogs enjoy having Jenna as their caregiver! I recommend her as a pet sitter as well to do drop-ins. We have also asked her to check on the dogs, let them out and feed them when we have a function in the evening. She’s a lovely, caring person.”
“Kasianay is the BEST sitter we’ve ever had and we’ve had quite a few! We were traveling for our wedding out of town and Kasianay was super attentive, provided ample updates, left our house better than when we left! I can’t say enough about her and we will definitely use her in the future!”
“Stephanie was a life saver. I had a short notice booking. She was able to fit in a meet and greet, which was very important because we have a high anxiety dog. She was sweet and calm with my dogs, and also playful for my high energy dog. And our high anxiety dog started to warm up to her after a day or so: She left our home clean and orderly. Would definitely recommend!”
“Kaylan was fantastic house sitting and watching over my 2 dogs and 2 cats. She took great care of my energetic dogs and followed all my pet instructions. I appreciated the daily updates and photos. And my house was tidy on my return. Definitely will be using Kaylan again!”
“Sara was phenomenal! Will 100000% be booking with her again. Sara was extremely attentive and kind to Stella, communicative with me, and took excellent care of our home during her stay. Sara took the anxiety out of leaving your pup at home. THANK YOU, SARA!”
“I have booked with Jessica countless times because she is the best pet sitter anyone could ask for. I have two dogs and a cat and one of my dogs is a sick senior dog with millions of specific needs. Jessica is so kind to take care of all of the peculiar needs and I just can’t think of anyone else to take care of my pets.”
“Terry has stayed overnight in our home to care for our two large dogs, and we trust her completely. She keeps them on their normal feeding and exercise schedule, which really matters to us, and she spends time playing with them in the backyard so they’re not just “checked on,” but genuinely engaged. Our dogs are big and energetic, and she handles them confidently and calmly. She sends updates, is easy to communicate with, and leaves the house in great shape. We always come home to relaxed, happy pups. We would book her again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, thoughtful pet sitter.”
“Faith stayed with our animals for a whole week while we were away. While they don’t have a lot of special care needs, they are pretty anxious babies. Having Faith in our home and sending us regular updates made us feel better and we knew they were in good hands. She communicated regularly and asked questions when needed. We came home to happy healthy animals and a clean house! I’d recommend Faith to anyone for pet care :)”
“My dog sitter had an issue the day before. Mary stepped in last minute and saved the day! She took incredible care of nefe and was so gracious to take such a short notice request. Absolutely recommend and will be booking her again! Thank you so much for everything!”
“Robyn did a superb job caring for our senior dog and senior cat. This was our first experience using Rover and the experience was so easy from start to finish. Our dog had a small medical issue while we were gone and she handled it so well. I do think our cat is having withdrawals from all the attention he got. We will definetly use Robyn again and would highly recommend her!”
“Stevie stayed in my home with Miley and Parker for four days and took incredible care of both of them. She made sure they received all of their medications, kept me updated with messages and photos, and gave them so much love and attention. I came home to two happy, relaxed dogs and a house that was just as I left it. Knowing they were so well cared for gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I'll be booking Stevie every chance I get... so get in line! 😊”
“Bailey took great care of all of my animals, she left the house clean and communicated with me the whole time we were gone. We will definitely be booking with her in the future!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Cartersville
Alicia is the best! She has been our go-to cat sitter for my senior kitties over the past few years. It is so comforting to know that they are in such caring hands while we are away from them. One of my kitties has some special needs and she takes such great care of him. She keeps us well informed during her stay with photos and texts of their escapades. I highly recommend Alicia for any cat-sitting needs you may have.
Madi was such a fantastic dog sitter. She was accommodating with our schedule and our girls just loved her! She sent updates and adorable photos. She did a great job with our senior dog and even helped our other dog to feel safe when fireworks were going off and scaring her. Our youngest dog ran to the door and looked sad when she left. We will definitely book her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Cartersville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Cartersville on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,917 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cartersville. 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 Cartersville 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 Cartersville 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 Cartersville 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.
