“From the moment I booked Susane on Rover, I hoped to find someone who would care for my beloved Jack as much as I do. Little did I know, I had found someone truly special. Susane took the time to come for a meet-and-greet before her stay, which immediately put my heart at ease. But the moment she greeted Jack with a treat and the warmest smile, I knew—I had made the perfect choice. She didn’t just take care of Jack; she showered him with so much love and attention that I almost felt a little jealous! It was clear that he adored her just as much. Knowing he was in such good hands allowed me to enjoy my time away without a single worry. Beyond her incredible care for Jack, Susane went above and beyond in every possible way. She left my home absolutely spotless and even surprised me with thoughtful cards and gifts on her last day. The kindness and dedication she showed truly touched my heart. Leaving your precious fur baby with someone new can be nerve-wracking, but because of Susane, I will never feel that worry again. Peace of mind is priceless, and that is exactly what she gave me. Susane, from the bottom of our hearts—thank you to the moon and back! Jack and I love you and can’t wait to have you back! With endless gratitude, Jill R”
About: I started walking dogs for neighbors as a way to get in extra exercise on the weekends and ended up loving it! Other neighbors saw and soon after inquired for weekend walks! I’ve dog sit for friends and family members whenever they’d go off on vacation or away for work trips. I have experience with dogs with anxiety, blindness, medication administration, and puppies! I’m a tattoo artist searching for a fun, outdoorsy, active side gig to get me out of the house and into fun shenanigans with sweet pups! I treat all pets as if they’re apart of my own family, because they are -woof-! I’ve cared for elderly pets, special needs pets, and puppies and understand that not all pets are the same, some require more time to gain trust while others are more outgoing; some need a 5 minute break to relax mid walk, while others are high energy the entire time through! I’ve experienced it all and look forward to working with you and your pet!
“Emma was fantastic with our dogs, our cats and our home. She is very sweet and great with the animals. We will definitely request her services again and would recommend her to anyone!”
“Jenna was great even Sage our Jack Russell that gets anxious when we leave on a trip warmed up to her quickly. Nova our other dog loved her from the moment she walked in. She left the apartment clean and very happy dogs. Jenna’s response rate and updates were 100%, I would definitely recommend having Jenna take care of your pets.”
“Christel was WONDERFUL! We were hesitant at first to use Rover due to a stranger staying in our house. Christel made the process simple and easy. She visited with us before booking to make sure she got along with the dogs and the dogs liked her as well. When it came to the weekend we were a way, she was very punctual, and most of all caring. She sent us great pictures and left our house as if she wasn’t even here. Her communication was amazing and she made sure to let us know that everything was going well. Both of our dogs have anxiety and she made sure that both were at ease. When we got home they were extremely relaxed after being with her. I would highly recommend Christel is you are looking for a Rover :)”
About: Atlanta artist, creative, and lifelong animal lover! 10+ years of pet experience...endless cuddles, belly rubs, adventures, and lots of love for every furry friend. I’m currently available part-time, with late mornings and early afternoons being my ideal times. I’m also happy to help with evening care when given a little notice! Every pet has their own personality and routine, so I follow your guidelines closely and care for your home respectfully. My goal is for your furry friend to feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away!
“Micaele was very kind, had great communication, and took great care of our dog while we were gone for the week! She met all of our needs / expectations and we would definitely use her again!”
“Samantha is amazing! She took such good care of Elton and sent me pictures and updates during the stay. Elton struggles to eat when I’m away and she found a way to make him feel comfortable enough to eat. I will definitely book her again!”
“This was my first time leaving my babies Maggie and Milo for a trip and I was absolutely terrified of it. I was very worried about Maggie in particular because she has separation anxiety and doesn’t warm up to strangers. When Elizabeth saw that Maggie wouldn’t eat whatsoever, she went to the store and bought some food that helped with her appetite. She even took Milo to the vet since nobody else could take him and began administering his meds. I struck gold with Elizabeth who went above and beyond to gain their trust and take care of them. She also did all she could to reassure me and has won my trust. She took such good care of my dogs and I highly recommend her. Definitely will be having her dog sit my babies again when necessary!”
“10 Stars! She was so excellent to work with! We were out of the country for 16 days; normally, we have family watch the dogs because Jake is older with cancer and takes a large amount of medicine. That wasn't an option with this trip, so we interviewed several folks and Ro was by far the best - she came over and met the dogs and learned about the house. She was here right after we left, and stayed with the dogs until right before we came home. She took such good care of them and the house. She kept us informed and updated with them throughout the trip and we honestly never worried - she was so great. 100% recommend and we'll be using again!”
“Jordan is an amazing dog sitter, excellent communication, professional and our dogs love her. I was able to fully enjoy being away because she was taking wonderful care of our dogs. Will definitely have her sit again!”

“Lily was fantastic and we would absolutely book her again in the future. She was a superb communicator, kept us updated throughout the day, and sent lots of pictures. She ensured that our pups stayed on their normal schedules and provided lots of love to each of them. Lily even provided attentive care to our senior pup who was on the mend with a paw infection while we were away. Our younger pup thoroughly enjoyed his multiple walks a day as well. She also left our home spotless upon our return as well. My husband and I highly recommend Lily for your booking!”
“We had never left our senior dog with anyone except family, so I was very nervous using Rover. Trent did a great job with Ginger, getting her outside to potty and getting her to take her meds and eat her food. We will definitely use Trent again if we need someone to watch our sweet old lady!”
“Landry is wonderful! She was amazing with our Maltese and took great care of our home too. She's a great communicator and responds quickly to messages and also sent great photos.”

Lilly was an amazing pet sitter! We went out of town for almost 3 weeks and not only did she love all of our pets as her own but maintained the household while we were gone. She texted often, sent pictures, and kept me informed on things around the house. When we came home after a full day of travel, the carpets were vacuumed, the bedding was washed and she made and the house feel so calm and inviting for us. We were able to just head straight to bed because she had all of the pets and house ready for our arrival. The thought and time she put into that was just amazing. She’s a rarity and we are so thankful that we found her! We highly recommend her!
Dylan did a great job taking care of Dewey while we were away for the weekend! This was our first time leaving our 11 month old German Shepard...we were nervous but Dylan sent lots of pictures and updates which helped us relax! He was reliable, attentive, and went above and beyond by staying an extra 2hrs until we made it home late from our flight. Dewey was in good hands, highly recommend!
We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Lucy during our 13-day trip. Lucy is extremely anxious and skittish, but she earned Lucy’s trust early on, and by the end they were friends. That meant so much to us. She sent photos and videos every day, along with little stories about how Lucy was doing. She also took wonderful care of our house: bringing in the mail, taking out the trash, cleaning up, and even stripping the bed and gathering the towels for laundry. She left us a sweet, detailed note and thoughtfully made sure the key was safely inside when she left. We came home to a happy Lucy and a spotless house. We’re so grateful for the care she gave both, and we would happily book her again.
Ciara took great care of our three dogs when we went out of town for 5 days. We have two 2 year old high energy corgis and a 6 month old Great Pyrenees puppy who looks like a full grown dog, but acts like a spoiled toddler! Collectively they are a challenge. She did a great job managing the herd, keeping order in the house and communicating with us. We would definitely ask Ciara to stay with our pups again.

The average cost of House Sitting in Crabapple is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $35 and $78 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Crabapple 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 Crabapple 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 Crabapple 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 , 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 .
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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
