“Second booking with Lauren, first time for overnight stay. Once again, she did everything I requested regarding care of my cats. May seem like a minor thing, but I have mischievous cats which leads to very specific care instructions. Will gladly book Lauren again.”
“Leaving our three boys—Hunter, Hudson, and Adolph—is never easy, but Olivia made it so much easier than we ever imagined. From the very beginning, it was obvious she genuinely loves animals. She cared for our boys with kindness, patience, and affection, and knowing they were safe, comfortable, and loved while we were away gave us tremendous peace of mind. There is simply no substitute for that feeling. She also took wonderful care of our home, stayed in touch with thoughtful updates, and made us feel connected even while we were away. When we returned, our boys were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for—the best welcome home we could have asked for. We were so impressed with Olivia that, while she was caring for our dogs, I recommended her to one of my dearest friends without hesitation. Trust is earned, and Olivia earned ours completely. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, compassionate, and will love your pets as if they were her own, look no further. We are incredibly grateful for Olivia and will absolutely be asking her to stay with Hunter, Hudson, and Adolph again. She is truly a gem.”
“Crystal was wonderful! She was reliable, trustworthy, and compassionate with Parker. We got lots of photo updates throughout the day. We won’t hesitate to use her services again. :)”
About: I’ve been around dogs/cats since i was able to walk, I absolutely adore any animal i cross paths with because they show nothing but unconditional love. When family members/friends/coworkers take vacations etc I am always the first to be asked because they know i will give their fur baby the best care while they are away. I’m a 911 dispatcher & tend to have days off during the week/weekends. I can be found helping tend to puppies with my dad, which can be quoted the handful, hanging out with his outside kitty’s or being a couch potato with my roomies dog at home. My dog Athena is 4 yrs old, she is kennel trained, potty trained & knows all the basic commands, along with being the best dog anyone could ask for. A lot of people say it but my animals are quite literally my entire world, so if the opportunity ever arose where someone trusted me to watch their animals, i wouldn’t hesitate to show the sweet babies so much love & care!
“Mia is fantastic. She took great care of our fur baby who can be a handful at times. She had the house nice and clean when we returned and even washed her bedding. We highly recommend Mia for any pet sitting needs and I will be rebooking her for Feb as soon as I finish this review.”
“Alice is a complete treat ! Both boys gravitated to her immediately and she was actually early and followed all instructions on bathroom habits and feedings. Feels good to have such a positive person in care of my precious pups ! You can’t go wrong with selecting her for care She was even irresistible to usually aloof Kooper 😃🐶🐕”
“Kristin is outstanding. She came over before watching them to get them used to her, and she took such good care of my needy babies. She kept me informed the entire time we were away, sent photos, and asked questions. I would absolutely recommend her!”
“Samuel was wonderful again! Our senior rescue dog was walked several times a day and was happy to have a buddy to be with. Our home and plants were in great shape after 10 days away. Even bedding and towels were taken care of. Many thanks for a wonderful trip and return home.”
“Ionna is a lovely person and cares deeply for pets and their people. She is flexible and easy to work with. I could tell when I picked up my boy after his stay with her that he had settled in and had been doing fine. I had originally booked her for housesitting but we decided that it would work better for both of us to have her do boarding. She is good with dogs and treated mine like one of her own.”
About: I have always been around and taken care of animals ever since I was young. I volunteer twice a week at a farm. I have nursed a crow, a chimminey swift, puppies, and even senior dogs. I have a completers certification for agriculture and animal science. I work part time so I have a very open schedule. Tuesday and Thursday mornings I work at a horse farm. Every other day I’m with my own Dogs. I would prefer caring for your pet at your house. My dogs aren’t accustomed to other animals and I’d rather not take your pet out of their place of comfort.
“Absolutely blessed to find Robin! My plans kept changing so I booked her super last minute and she made time to fit in a meet and greet with Julian before staying. This was the first time leaving my dog with non family so I had a lot of concerns and very nervous about it. Robin eased all my nerves and I knew I could trust her with my baby. Julian loves her and she loves him and took care of him like he was hers. She kept me updated, communicated well and sent me pictures which made my heart happy. I will certainly be rebooking with Robin.”
About: I have loved and cared for all animals since I was younger. As a child I was always asked to care for the pets of family members and friends. I work on a 24/72 schedule. I am also in class once-twice a week. Looking for an entertaining and rewarding way to spend my free time! Willing and able to take on any task given. I am a quick learner and will do all that is asked plus more. Will accommodate to the best of my abilities.
About: I’ve taken care of many different types of animals all my life and been care taker with medicine, giving birth, wounds, etc and wouldn’t trade it for the world of the knowledge I’ve gained and the love for them! I work active duty in the airforce I work basically a 0730-1600 with an hour lunch but I live in the dorms so I just have a pet fish but I would love to be able to give some love to someone’s pets! I’ve worked around and with animals almost all my life and everything that comes with them and I am going to be studying pre vet for asu in the early spring of next year!! I fully believe you know what’s best for your animal since you know them and I am here to love them and care for them as you would!
“Kaileigh did an amazing job house sitting our home and taking care of our furbabies. Our dogs loved her and she always kept us updated. She has so much knowledge on doggie care and was also just a super sweet young lady. We are so relieved to know that we have found such a great sitter to use in the future!”
About: Hi there! I’m an experienced veterinary technician with a passion for caring for animals of all shapes, sizes, ages, and personalities. Through my years in veterinary medicine, I’ve worked with everything from energetic puppies and curious kittens to senior pets and those with special medical needs. I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring health concerns, and recognizing signs that may require extra attention. Whether your pet is shy, anxious, high-energy, or simply loves extra cuddles, I strive to provide patient, compassionate care tailored to their individual needs. As a pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away—and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in experienced hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your wonderful pets! I work every Friday through Sunday, so those days I am unavailable. I am off from work every Monday to Thursday - available any time of day. James and I do long walks every day. We refresh on his training by doing recall exercises. He has great leash manners and I reinforce his manners with lots of praise and rewards.
“Well it’s official we have found our kindred care! Elli is a breath of fresh air, punctual would be an understatement! She listened attentively to each boys preference and schedule. Her active engagement with their one on one with toys (Kooper) and fetch (Dakota) sealed the deal! We are looking forward to the next care appointment and you should start yours now ! She’s great !!!❤️”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 87 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.
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.
