“Micah did an extended stay with my dog, and was stellar. Communicative, engaged, following instructions, asking questions, caring, thoughtful and responsible. Micah helped me with some mail issues while I was away as well. So wonderful and highly recommend.”
“Jay stayed in our house while we were on a cruise and our two dogs and cat absolutely loved having him. We received great daily updates with photos, the critters had a great time and he took excellent care of the house and the plants. Highly recommend Jay!”
“Marquesha was a great house sitter. She was punctual and dependable. She took care of two dogs and cats. She followed all of our directions and left our house in top shape!”
“Shayla was very communicative and sent photos of our pups to us regularly. The pups seemed like they enjoyed their time with her and they got lots of attention/cuddles! We will definitely reach out to Shayla when we need a sitter in the future!”
“We had a great experience with Jaquana taking care of Penny! She was very communicative, sent us pictures every day, and made us feel so comfortable while we were away. Penny was very well cared for, and we would absolutely use her again!”

About: Hey! I’m Savannah, I just graduated from esthetician school and now working as an Esthetician in Buckhead! From birth I’ve always been surrounded by dogs from Dobermans to Pomeranians. I’ve always had a huge heart for animals, especially dogs, and I’d love to help care for yours while you’re away. I have recently gotten three kittens and have fallen in love with cats now. As someone trained in both skincare and healthcare, (from lifeguarding growing up) I know how important it is to be detail oriented, compassionate, and trustworthy. Whether it’s sticking to a feeding schedule, giving your pup extra snuggles, or going on energy burning walks, I’m committed to giving your fur baby the love and attention they deserve. Let me know your animals needs, routines, quirks, and I’ll take care of them like they’re my own. Can’t wait to meet your furry friend! Let’s set up a meet and greet! I’d love to get to know you and your fur baby! I’m currently working part-time as a licensed esthetician but have plenty of time to work around any days you would need! I would be available mostly during the week and holidays! When pets stay with me, they become part of the family! I create a calm, cozy, and pet safe environment where they can feel comfortable, loved, and secure. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, I adjust to their pace and needs.
“Emily is highly dependable and has a great rapport with our puppy. She is patient, friendly, and clearly has a love for animals. I need someone to watch our pup who communicates effectively and in a timely manner and she definitely is that person. We will be requesting Emily to be our dog sitter every time we aren't around. ”
“Scar was amazing with my two kitties and stayed over a few nights with them. I have a super shy girl that Scar won over and gave lots of pets to, and an extra hyper kitten that they played with and didn’t mind her kitten antics. I received fantastic photos of my kitties that made me feel so much better about my trip. Would definitely rebook and recommend!”
“Jessica and Kristen were great! Took excellent care of our house and pup. Super communicative, we got updates and cute pics every day we were gone. Highly recommend!”
“Jeanmarie spent entire days with Bindi, my quirky little Italian greyhound. I appreciated all the photos and updates, and Bindi appreciated all the cuddles and company. I already have Jeanmarie booked for future housesits!”
“Best sitter ever! Mandy sent me tons of adorable photos and videos of my little guy, was super communicative, a wonderful houseguest, and an all around pleasure! I can’t tell who had more fun - me on vacation or my cat hanging out with Mandy! 😂 10/10 would recommend.”
“Amelia was great with our dog! She was very responsive with her communication. She stayed with our dog in our home and was very respectful and clean. Would definitely recommend her!”
“Mia was very attentive to our girls and took care of the house while we were away. Very communicative with updates multiple times per day together with pics and good questions about the dogs or the house (the power went out for an hour and the dogs caught a critter in the back yard). Mia was up front about her schedule and kept us up to date about her needs. Overall - the dogs loved her and we will work with Mia again if schedules work.”
About: I have lived with cats my whole life and have great attention to detail for them. I am also experienced with dogs of different ages and sizes. The most important thing to me is that your pet is happy and healthy. I am open to any opportunites, I have also taken care of chickens and rabbits. I also can take care of plants and maintain the house if you are away. I am currently not working so I am able to devote a lot of my attention to your beloved pets. I am very flexible and always try to communicate if there is an issue or I don't know something. I am always free on weekdays but I may have limited availability on the weekends. I always take care of the space I am in and try to leave it cleaner than I found it. And of course the pets are the main focus and the center of attention! I am very good at following written instructions and if I have any questions I will always ask.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Clarkston
Raymond was the best with our pups! He took great care of them and kept them on their routine while we were away. He was very respectful of the house and left it in tip-top shape before he left. His communication was awesome and we will booking with him again!
Elizabeth exceeded all expectations. I was lucky enough to book her last minute to watch mine and my neighbor’s dog. She asked a ton of questions prior to sitting for us that showed she really understood dogs and really wanted to make sure she stuck to our typical routine. Both dogs were instantly obsessed with her when she came for a meet and greet. She kept me updated on how the dogs were doing, sent tons of great pictures, and generally just made me feel relaxed about being away from my pup. When I got home, both dogs were relaxed and happy. The house looked even better than how I had left it. I hope to have Elizabeth stay with us again soon!
Micah did a fantastic job staying with our pups and cat for the weekend! Micah kept the house spotless, followed all the house rules and care guidelines, and sent many pictures and updates so we knew they were in good hands. During the meet-n-greet, Micah had asked plenty of great questions to be sure on the expectations and so we felt confident in Micah's ability to provide a safe care experience for our pets. We're very happy to have Micah sit for us in future!
Jade was just a dream. Exceedingly polite, courteous, warm and friendly, and genuinely loves dogs. She and my energetic hound got along beautifully, and I felt safe and assured that Puck was being cared for. She communicated frequently, sent lots of pics, and left the house neat and clean, even changing the bedding. She's already booked for two more visits, so while I hate potentially missing out on her future availability, I highly recommend her!
Andrea is exceptionally professional, and she was very clear and communicative throughout the booking process and stay. We appreciated all the check-ins, pictures of June (especially the great action shots of her zoomies!), and all the time Andrea spent outside with June, letting her get excercise and enjoy the sun. We came home to a very relaxed and happy dog!
Julia was awesome. We couldn’t be happier with how well she took care of our babies and treated our house. Julia was very communicative and the daily photos were perfect for us to feel great about leaving our girls in her care. No second thoughts about using Julia again on our next trip.
We had the pleasure of having Anna take care of Philip while we were away, and she did an outstanding job. She took wonderful care of him, and we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We came back to a spotless home just as we left it, and most importantly, Philip was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend her!
Jay was fantastic! He took great care of our girl Azalea and kept us consistently updated with lots of pictures throughout the stay. We really appreciated how attentive and communicative he was, and it was clear Azalea loved spending time with him. We’d absolutely book with Jay again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Clarkston
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Clarkston on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 4,822 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Clarkston. 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 Clarkston 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 Clarkston 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 Clarkston 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.
