“I can’t say enough great things about Elizabeth. She came prepared to our meet and greet with a through list of questions about my cat and our home. She was a great communicator and kept me up to date on what was going on with my cat and sent pictures every day. She even brought in my mail, watered my plants, and took out the trash before she left on her last visit. It’s obvious that my cat loved his time with her. I won’t hesitate to use her services again!”
“Shanna was fantastic! She helped our kitty adjust to the new environment when he was having a rough time and was very supportive with updates since we were out of the country on vacation. She sent us many photos and videos with daily updates while we were away. Could not recommend her more!! 😊”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life, including German Shepherds, Chihuahuas, and Shih Tzus. I currently have a Chihuahua of my own, so I understand how much our pets mean to us. I’m comfortable with both large and small dogs and love getting to know each dog’s unique personality. I’m patient, gentle, attentive, and will treat your dog like family while they’re in my care. I have a flexible schedule and can work pet care into my daily routine. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I’m happy to communicate about your pet’s specific routine and needs. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I follow your instructions closely, keep pets safe and supervised, and make sure they have everything they need. I’m dependable, gentle, and attentive to each pet’s individual personality and routine.
About: I love animals but can’t have pets in my apartment so would appreciate sharing that love with your pet! I have been caring for a variety of pets since 2019, mostly dogs & cats (and the occasional bird!). I have experience with dogs of all sizes (from chihuahuas to Great Danes) and most ages. I have less experience with puppies but lots of experience with senior dogs. I have experience with high energy dogs that need multiple walks a day and dogs that struggle with mobility. I have experience with dogs who require medication. I have experience with cats of all temperaments. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out. I have a fairly flexible schedule so am available during the day most days and on weekends. I have been regularly caring for my parents’ elderly Great Dane (11 years old now) since 2020. I am looking forward to spending more time caring for pets. I care for pets in their home environment according to the standards set by the owners. I am very conscious of varying family rules on things such as furniture and am happy to adhere to those expectations. I prefer to stick to whatever schedule the pet(s) are used to (regular walk times, regular feeding times, etc).
About: I was a cat sitter when I was younger and when I lived out on my own I adopted a kitten who I absolutely loved and created a special bond with. Some cats need extra time and space when getting to know someone new. I am very respectful and understanding of this. I have dog sat for many family members and friends over the years and well as had a dog in a four year partnership. I had three cats and a dog which I cared for on a regular basis. I walked our dog daily and made sure she got the right amount of play according to her weight, breed, and needs. Each animal is unique and requires different types of care. I am eager to get to know your pet’s personality and meet their needs the best I can. I walk every day. I would love to give a not only needed exercise but to feel some joy while sniffing around and seeing the sights of the neighborhood. As far as pet sitting, my job is very flexible as I work a few hours weekend mornings and a few hours two evenings out of the week. I currently have no pets of my own to care for, so I have a lot of free time to dedicate to other’s pets. I want clients to feel safe with me caring for their pet and having access to their home. Respecting guidelines on pet and home care is one of my top priorities.
“Samantha was a great communicator and went above and beyond! She made sure to not only play with our cat, but also make sure she had activities set up for when she left. We got great photos and knew that Mila was truly cared for!”
About: We have cared for pups for many years. We lost our two pups in 2022 who we've raised since they were 3 months old. It brings us comfort to know that we gave them rich, fulfilling lives. To honor their memories, we volunteer and foster with the local animal shelter and pet sit when possible. We currently have a 6 year old, 10lb Maltese/Shitzsu name Penny who we adore. She loves playing with other pups! I work at Emory and my wife is currently a stay at home mom to our 2 children. Due to this flexibility, we are able to be afforded a lot of time to care for your pets. We walk 2-3x's daily around the neighborhood (1-2 mile routes) and never double book (unless they're siblings) to ensure that the time we have with your pet is dedicated for them. We have a large, fenced-in yard on a half acre lot so your pet will have plenty of room to stretch their legs and get their wiggles out. We can commit to taking them out to potty every 2-4hrs during the day. We have experience with both crate trained pups and free range pups so long as they are non destructive when left out. We are also comfortable using healthier treats (such as rotisserie chicken) to reinforce good behaviors. We have toys, blankets, a bed, and large metal crate in our home should your pup need them. We typically take 1-2 walks daily, averaging 1-2 miles per walk - so your pet will have ample opportunity to enjoy new sights and smells during their stay with us.
About: Hello, I’m Fern (Magdalen) I love animals, I find them to be the most pure little buddies. I have experience with leash pullers and dog reactive dogs. I have experience with cats with medical needs such as administering pills, ear drops, ointments and syringe feedings. I find that pets respond best when you speak to them like they’re human. I enjoy sticking to routine with pets and I ensure pups get plenty of stimulation! I work Mondays through Thursdays 7am-5:30pm. I work remotely Mondays and Wednesdays. I am available to house sit Fridays-Mondays. I am available for walks Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and weekends. Depending on distance, morning and midday walks are tricky unless I am house sitting. I pay attention to the animal’s needs. I tend to talk to the pet as if they were a person. I find animals respond well to it and it helps establish trust. I enjoy playing with both cats and dogs. Extra enrichment when the owner is away is key to help relieve pent up anxieties. I love long walks with dogs. I am good with routines and adhere closely to the guidelines set by the owner.
“Thank you, Chimere! You always care for my cats like they're your own, ensuring they are happy, well-fed, and loved. I feel completely at ease knowing they are in such caring hands.”
About: Your new go to dog walker in Decatur! I’ve cared for family and neighborhood dogs from the age of 7. I’m a huge dog person with confidence and experience to match; I understand the love and care owners have for their pets and will put in the best effort to communicate clearly and make both pet and owner happy. I work part time and from home teaching piano to young students which allows me plenty of free time to play with, feed, cuddle, and walk your dog. I have a friendly 2 year old Rat terrier mix who would love to walk and/or meet your dog. However, I’m willing to walk and care for dogs individually as needed. I have a strong preference for walking dogs with harnesses, for the safety of the animal and others.
“Georgia was great with our three cats while we were away! She sent plenty of photos and updates. I’ve booked her twice already and will definitely book her again next time we’re out of town!!”
“Fallon took excellent care of our fur babies! The cats loved hanging out with her and she was great at managing their mischief. We also greatly appreciated the many photos she sent with each check in. Would highly recommend!”
“Solange was great - timely updates w/ lots of pics, and she took the initiative to vacuum the litter my kitties had kicked up. Not expected, but definitely appreciated! Highly recommended.”
“Ben was fantastic! Starting with our meet & greet, he went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and more importantly that he was prepared to give the best possible care to my pet which he absolutely did. I so appreciated his daily notes and photos and could tell how comfortable and safe my cat felt with him. I would absolutely rebook!”
“Mirabella was truly AMAZING! She watched my two cats for two weeks and I couldn’t have asked for a better caretaker. From day one, she was incredibly kind, reliable, and attentive, and she went above and beyond in every way. She provided consistent updates, photos, and detailed messages that made me feel completely at ease while I was away. It was clear she genuinely cared about my cats and treated them like her own — making sure they were comfortable, happy, and well taken care of the entire time. I came home to two very content cats and everything in perfect condition. I would 100% recommend Mirabella to anyone looking for a trustworthy, thoughtful, and responsible sitter. I will absolutely be booking with her again!”
About: Throughout middle & high school, I have volunteered at my local animal shelter and I loved walking and feeding the dogs! While I’ve only ever had cats, I have pet-sitted dogs for my friends and family on overnights and gone on many walks. I’m currently a full-time grad student but with a fixed class schedule. I am currently fully available on weekends and most evenings on weekdays. I do not offer boarding in my apartment as it is against my building policy, but as for pet-sitting in your home, I am always very respectful and communicative.
About: I’ve taken care of all types of dogs and cats. Young, old, cuddly, and grouchy. I have administered medicine and changed diapers. I have also cleaned litter boxes. I currently work part time. I’m a dance teacher. I usually teach in the afternoons/evenings. I don’t work on the weekends. I am usually free in the mornings and middle of the day. I make sure they get plenty of time outside if that’s what they desire. I also make sure they have plenty of food, water, treats, and pets.
“Jordyn is a great sitter for our cats, Mushroom and Pinecone. Extremely responsive and communicative and great at following instructions. We feel we can relax knowing our kitties are in great hands with Jordyn! Highly recommend!”

Kailyn was such a great sitter for my cat! She did drop in visits while I was away for about a week and sent regular updates :) I know she was great company for my cat and I appreciated how responsible and on top of everything she was! I will definitely be booking Kailyn again to care for my cat!
Cameron was so sweet from the beginning. She kept me up to date with how Rosie and Ellie were doing and sent really cute photos. She made me feel super comfortable leaving them over the holiday weekend, and didn’t make me feel silly when I sent my long list of instructions from being an anxious pet parent. I’ll definitely be using her again 😊
I had to leave town spur-of- the- moment and was able to secure Priscilla to care for my three indoor cats and one (feral) outdoor cat. She did a fantastic job without having met any of the cats beforehand. I feel like she cared for my cats as I would had i been here. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for quality pet care.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Clarkston is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 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.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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.
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 Meet & Greet.

- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
