Candice did an amazing job taking care of Stu. Though he was happy when we came home, there was absolutely no sign that he was lonely. Its clear that Candice spent ample time making sure he was comfortable. Candice also left the home completely undisturbed. I will use her services again and highly recommend her.

About: I’ve been working with animals for 15 years, caring for dogs, cats, birds. I have handled breeds that are small to very large. I am available for walking, dog park visits, bathing them is optional, and I am open to any breed. I have always been great with pets, we have 3 of our own who are amazing with everyone and other animals. I am very flexible with my schedule. I love to ensure they are getting their exercise as needed, as well as a well rounded diet. I am a stay at home mom so I am very happy to be with them however they require. We use leashes and harnesses for outside. We have a dog park close by that’s fenced in and safe for giving them running time and ability to play freely

About: I’ve had a LOT of animals throughout my life to include fish, birds, dogs, chinchilla, guinea pigs, horses, goats and pigs. Ive been in the situation of needing a fur baby sitter while having to travel. I currently have 5 dogs and a cat. I’m in the process of creating a dog haven in my big back yard and have an air conditioned inside play/rest area for hot days. I work from home and have an open schedule. I travel some but I can usually adjust it when needed. Last minute requests for weekends are sometimes doable. I have five dogs so I do not stay overnight. I take my dogs on hikes almost daily, weather permitting. We also go shopping at pet friendly stores. I can do one on one visits or your pup can be part of the pack.

About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, from 10-pound lap dogs to 150-pound large breeds. I currently own two cats and have previously cared for a pit bull mix, miniature schnauzer, toy poodle, and many other pets over the years. I have experience with senior pets, anxious/reactive animals, and administering medications both through food and oral syringes. I’m comfortable handling multiple pets at once and have cared for up to five dogs and one cat at the same time. I truly love spending time with animals and enjoy taking dogs on walks and jogs, playing with them, and giving them plenty of affection and attention. I’m dependable, communicative, and always strive to make both pets and owners feel safe and comfortable while in my care. I’m currently a full-time student and work part-time, but pet care is something I genuinely enjoy making time for. With at least two weeks’ notice, I’m able to accommodate my work schedule even more to provide reliable care for your pets. I’m dependable, flexible, and make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, jogs, cuddles, or simply relaxing with company, I’m happy to accommodate their routine and keep you updated along the way. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priorities. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, including senior pets and anxious/reactive animals, so I understand the importance of patience, awareness, and creating a calm environment. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special routines your pet may need. I’m also a strong communicator and will provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve lived with animals most of my teenage and adult life. My family pet is a turtle who is about 13 years old now. I currently live with 2 dogs and 5 snakes! I have been a standby stable hand for 4 years now. I love animals and I would love to help you care for your furry friends! I work part time at Chick-fil-A on weekdays from 11-4 but I am off on Tuesdays most weeks. I could and would care for your furry friends before and after work if needed! I have dog sat before and I believe strongly in following the guidelines set by the owner. I think routine is important and I would do everything in my power to keep your furry friends routine! I could feed, train, and walk them however and whenever you want and need.

About: Hello! I have experience dog-sitting a variety of breeds, ranging from very social dogs to those that are more reactive. I am comfortable with dogs that bark, as I understand they can be quite different. One of my own dogs has severe anxiety, so I am familiar with how to manage such situations. Both of my current dogs are large, so I am comfortable caring for dogs of any size. My goal is to ensure the animals feel loved and cared for, so that their owners can have complete peace of mind. I am currently employed full-time, but I have all of my evenings available and am passionate about animals and providing them with the best possible care. I understand when and how to use crates if necessary. I am also familiar with engaging with them through toys and activities! I will make sure they get the proper care.

About: I have lived with dogs my entire life! And I now have had lots of experience watching other people’s dogs as well! I can’t wait to take care of your pup! I have availability throughout the whole week currently. But that is subject to change. I like to spend my off days outside going for walks and enjoying the weather when it’s nice. I like to listen to the clients instructions because every household and every dog is different and has different needs so making sure I follow their rules is the most important thing.

About: I am a dependable and experienced pet sitter with over 8 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. As someone who has grown up with and owned dogs, I understand the importance of providing pets with consistent care, attention, exercise, and affection while their owners are away. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I have regularly pet sat for neighbors and teammates, helping with feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, and maintaining pets’ daily routines. I am comfortable working with both large and small breeds and understand that every dog has unique needs and energy levels. I am currently taking supplemental online courses and am working part-time remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for and play with your fur babies throughout the day! I live on 3 acres of property, giving dogs plenty of space to explore, exercise, and enjoy the outdoors under supervision. While the yard is not fenced, I prioritize safety and can keep dogs leashed, closely monitored, or crated when needed. I make sure pets receive daily walks, regular playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. For dogs that enjoy being active, I also occasionally take them on hikes to provide additional exercise and enrichment. I understand the importance of maintaining a pet’s normal routine and will follow feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication instructions, and any special care requests provided by the owner. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their home and pets with the utmost respect, ensuring pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment while receiving attentive care. My goal is always to make pets feel safe and happy while their owners are away.

FAQs for House Sitting - Cherokee Hills

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Cherokee Hills on Rover is $32.1 per night (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 593 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cherokee Hills. 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 Cherokee Hills 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 Cherokee Hills 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 Cherokee Hills 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 with handling special pet needs in Cherokee Hills. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

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.
